Question asked

Amcor (AMC) and REIT’s

To the MM Team, Sorry for the late question, I hope it makes the cut off time. My question relates to AMC. I see that AMC is down around 9% in your Growth portfolio, if you did not hold your full 4% allocation would you consider "topping up" at the current price of around $62? Second question, when do you think you may start think about pulling the Buy trigger on certain REIT's, i.e. CLW, DXS MGR, etc? Thanks for all the great input and education, Charles

Answer

Hi Charles,

A well-timed question with AMC down ~3.5% on Friday amid economic growth concerns, as rising oil prices weighed on economically sensitive areas of the market. Copper names were hit hardest, reflecting sensitivity to growth expectations.

On balance we expect March to be a rocky month for the ASX, as it seasonally is before we add a war to the mix. However, we do believe it will eventually blow over and 2026 will follow earnings higher, it’s just likely to shake people’s confidence first. If we were underweight AMC, we view this weeks pullback as a buying opportunity under $62.

  • We own AMC in our Active Growth and Income Portfolios and may consider lifting exposure from 4% to 5% ~$60.

In terms of REITS such as Mirvac (MGR), Charter Hall (CLW) and Dexus (DXS) that we have discussed recently, we are considering buying into current weakness as the rising oil price pushes up bond yields weighing on rate-sensitive stocks like the REITS.

  • We can see ourselves buying one or more REIT’s in the coming weeks, with MGR & CLW the most likely inclusions.
