I have update the dividend payout for 4 of the REITs that have undergone rights or placement issues. Their yields used to look like in the 20 % plus but with the dilution of the shares they no more look like astounding yielders.

Just curious, does shipping trusts really have that high yields? It seems too high to be possible. Can clarify?

Hi hoyo, their yields have been moderated. Im sorry for not being able to provide the updated figures since i don't have the data.
but their yields are still very high. that doesn't mean that its a good deal. if its that high its likely they are of high risk status. its just like junk bonds of GM. its high yielding but likely because only at such high yields can you attract investors to distress assets.
