Possible Near-Term Unit Price Movements of Singapore REITs with Retail Malls in its Portfolio

Footfall to the retail malls (especially those located in the CBD area) have taken a beating as a result of the Singapore government’s implementation of the Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) measures to bring down the number of community cases. As a result, Singapore-listed REITs with retail malls in its portfolio are negatively impacted.
