<li>In early February, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/link-reit" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:872:1" rel="noopener">Link REIT (823 HK)</a> announced it would do a 1 for 5 rights offering, with the Exercise Price well below TERP.</li>
<li>The REIT units dropped in price as the already unlevered REIT was not seen to be needing further deleverage and early debt repayment in a rising rate environment.</li>
<li>Units went ex-Rights on 24 February. The rights start trading tomorrow. That means flows. Of multiple kinds. Worth thinking about.</li>
