Property (10%):
As with Agri, some of my recent posts will overlap. I should obviously point you to my series on German Residential Property, Post I to Post V – it offers an in-depth look at my allocation & stock selection approach to Property. This culminated in a recent stock-pick I’m v pleased with: KWG Kommunale Wohnen (BIW:GR), a 5.1% portfolio holding.
At EUR 5.475, it’s up +6% since my write-up a month ago (and +9% from my actual avg. entry price). It’s clearly left resistance at EUR 5.25-32 trailing in the dust, and the next EUR 5.60-80 resistance now beckons. A possible break of EUR 6.10-20 in due course may suggest the share’s ready to muscle its way far higher. It’s fascinating to note that price level corresponds to a KWG market cap of about EUR 100 mio: Which is precisely the level I highlighted as a possible sweet spot for the market to award KWG a significantly higher price/book valuation!
You know, I’m not much of a stock screener – I mean why ruin a day of reading annual reports instead?! 😉 But I do think property stocks lend themselves v nicely to a stock screening approach (Stockopedia, of course!) – there’s only a couple of key variables on which you really need to focus. In fact, let me suggest a stock selection strategy, a la Joel Greenblatt:
