yeah, I will likely pare things down over time. Right now I'm casting a wider net due to market volatility and since, well, the list is new.

Also had to make a run for supplies this weekend. Donned a mask and gloves. Still seeing way to many people in public. A few with masks, majority not.

Visited Walmart. Seems to have a better setup then the other stores I visited, say Lowes and Menards.

The wait to get in is pretty fast. Wiping down all carts is nice. Distance between shoppers is getting better.

Menards and Lowes is like there is no pandemic at all. Just the way it's always been. A lot of huddling up to check out.

Guess we'll need more cases and deaths before we take this poo poo seriously.

REIT that's local to me that I've been eyeing up for a while, Cedar Realty (CDR)

Most of their locations are anchored by grocery stores so they should be good to weather this. They are highly concentrated in the Northeast though and the NY/NJ/CT exposure likely hurts a bunch. All of the Philly construction is shut down at the moment, which sucks, because they were doing some fantastic work near me, right next to some serious infrastructure upgrades.

After looking at this... it IS interesting. Did you do anything with it?

So it's mostly shopping centers, generally anchored by supermarkets. Not great, but not as bad as your average indoor mall. Their top 20 tenants, responsible for about 40% of their revenues, are mostly going to make it through this--though stuff like UA Cinemas and the gyms might be in trouble.

Then you have all the other smaller tenants worth the other 60% of revenue. They aren't named in the 10-K, but the company helpfully lists them on their website for each of their properties. Here's one I clicked on at random in Harrisburg, PA:

Starbucks 1,600 SF

How many of those default in the next six months? Probably quite a few. Nail salons and mom 'n' pop restaurants aren't known for being particularly well capitalized. But it's also maybe not as bad as I would've thought.

If they lose 20% of the top tenants and 50% of the smaller ones overall for this year--this seems extremely pessimistic but not impossible--revenues decline from ~$144MM to $90. Keep all else equal and the company loses around $53MM in 2020 (they pretty much just broke even in 2019). Again, that's a pessimistic scenario.

Look at cash flow under that scenario and it's not as bad. 2019's D&A was $45MM, so keeping everything else equal there the operating cash burn would "only" be around $8MM in 2019, which CDR can handle. Net investing cash flow was ($22MM) in 2019. Say we half that for 2020--probably going to defer construction and capex as much as possible. Okay, now we're at $30MM out the door in 2020.

In 2019 the company burned another $29MM in common and preferred dividends. Last week CDR slashed the common div down to $0.01 per quarter; they should probably eliminate it entirely, and start deferring on the preferred just to be safe.

So let's say under this scenario the company burns $30MM this year after cutting all dividends. That sucks, but it's survivable. They just drew $75MM on the revolver and so long as no covenants are tripped they'll be around into 2021.

In Feb 2021 they have to roll a $75MM term loan. That's when the rubber meets the road, because if conditions don't improve by then and lenders are scared off the company is in danger of default.

Bottom line: unclear. I give just one particularly pessimistic scenario above, but this wasn't a killer business to begin with, and I imagine every lease renewal that comes up for negotiation in the next few years will be flat or down. I think they'll survive, but it's a tough business.

If I was going to do something with CDR I'd probably buy one of the preferreds--they yield 20% at the moment, are cumulative, and if the business goes back to normal they'll triple as they head back to par.

But let me know what you do, if you don't mind. What I write above is just a quick-rear end back of the envelope scenario with possibly garbage assumptions.

If you are digging into REITs, it may also make sense to look into research coming out of the big commercial real estate brokerages.

Search like CBRE/Colliers/Cushman&Wakefield/JLL/NGKF and see what their research people are saying about investor demand/projections. Marcus & Millichap has some research too, but they aren’t the same as the other bigs ones. I don’t know if Eastdil Secured puts out research, but all these sources can help you figure out what might change to the asset values underlying the REITs.

I've been doing a deep dive into bond performance over various periods from the past 15 years...

...and man, gently caress, they're just not worth owning unless you're retired. Except for intermed/long treasuries. You REALLY want to own those before the market shits the bed and then dump them after things are back to "normal". I thought I'd be able to find a useful period for high-yield bonds or corporate long-term bonds, but no, not really unless you have really, really good month-to-month market timing (e.g. own them for a while before GFC bottomed in early '09).

Anyone here own corporate bonds when the market is calm and no bubble is brewing? If so, which, why?

I think whether bonds are good or not for you highly depends on the rate you can get from a savings account. Seems like that's been poo poo lately so I have 20% FI in the long term portfolio (mix of corporate/govt bond ETFs) so that I'm not exposed 100% to equities. If I could get 2.5% in a savings account I would probably do that instead.
