We’ve written a lot in recent times around our expectations/views towards transitioning portfolios into more defensive assets as the year progresses, and one such stock that caught our eye during the week following a subscriber question was US-listed Crown Castle.

This is critical infrastructure for 5G and while the bride will be upset I’m writing this, 5G is the future of telecommunications. This is an example of a long-duration asset with a decade-long pipeline for growth, stable and predictable earnings with upside potential through the ramp-up in 5G investment.
