Hospitality REITs in the lead again.

Almost all S-REITs clocked in modest movements this week, with OUE Hospitality Trust bagging best performance and CapitaRetail China Trust going home with a worst performer award.

In a report by RHB Group, the Hospitality REITs were the top performer (+0.2% WoW) last week, mainly driven by OUE Hospitality Trust (OUEHT) which was up 2.1% WoW.

Year-to-date, the Retail REITs were the best performers (+8.8% YTD), while the Office REITs returned the least (-2.1% YTD). Mapletree Commercial Trust (MCT) outperformed the rest, generating price return of 15.6% YTD while IREIT Global was the primary laggard, down 10.7% YTD.

According to a report by OCBC, MCT’s Singapore assets registered a decline in occupancy rates for FY15, while overall average rental reversions of 8.0% were achieved.
