  (Image credit: OUE REIT) The below article is for educational purpose only. Kindly refrain from taking any action. It shouldn’t constitute as an investment advice. Please read the disclaimer . LWF has taken a position in OUE REIT. The recent divestment activity saw interest in the stock. I am taking a position for cash management purposes. The REIT has announced the divestment of the Crowne Plaza Hotel at Changi Airport to an interested party of OUE JV for $500m subject to approval by REIT holders in the upcoming EGM. There is also news about OUE REIT and UOB looking to sell One Raffles Place for $2.4b. If OUE REIT is able to get an offer close to the asking price. Based on my calculations, the REIT owns 67.95% of One Raffles, which comes out to around $1.63b for their shares. If they can sell it at asking, subtract the loan of $254m.

Wolf Money/Bargain(Osaka and Kyoto)part2

(The icon of Osaka) (Kyoto Tower;The Japanese and their love affair with radio towers) The prices in general have climbed significantly in Japan. Where are the bargains then? Read on Attraction  Nara Park One of my top picks is Nara Park. Nara is one hour train ride away from Osaka. If anyone is looking for the great outdoor experience, the park is an excellent choice. Visitor can buy a deck of peanut cookies at ¥200 to feed the deer. Once the deer see you holding onto the biscuit, you can be sure a herd will be forming around you to grab a bite. The biscuit will be gone in a minute. The deer, like the Japanese, are well-mannered. They will bow to the visitors to get a biscuit. Remember to be constantly on the move before one gets sworn by many deer. The deer are cute, but they can get aggressive. No ticket is required for this attraction. One could spend a full morning looking at those fascinating animal.  (Deer feeding on peanut biscuits) Street of Uji Uji is just 20 mins fr...
