The share price is nearing a major support level, suggesting a new buying zone and potential for substantial medium-term rewards.

Exchange Income Corporation (EIF) has shown excellent capital allocation and management, delivering strong returns and outperforming the market with a 24.7% increase since August. The company posted record revenues, EBITDA, and FCF in 3Q24, with significant growth in both aviation and manufacturing segments, despite some volatility in manufacturing. While EIF remains a solid investment with a $65 CAD price target, concerns include increased debt usage and a lower yield, making it less attractive above $60/share.
Macro events surrounding the dry bulk industry remain mixed, albeit improved compared to pre-pandemic periods, with it already triggering higher contracted TCE rates for SBLK. These have directly contributed to the company's robust FQ3'24 performance, healthier balance sheet, and richer dividend yields compared to historical levels. If anything, market players remain cautiously optimistic about 2025 and beyond, attributed to the Red Sea/ Ukraine conflict, impact of slow steaming, and the resultant supply/ demand imbalance.

We initiated our position in Star Bulk Carriers Corp. in October 2022 due to strong fundamentals, good management, and shareholder-friendly practices. Star Bulk's Q3 revenue was $344 million, slightly down from Q2, with synergy savings from the Eagle Bulk merger totaling $9.2 million over two quarters. SBLK's debt per vessel is manageable, dividend yield is 13.2%, and P/B ratio is 0.84, making it an attractive investment.
National Storage Affiliates has delivered an outsized total return since March, outperforming the S&P 500's 13% rise over the same period. NSA's unique PRO structure and focus on the Sunbelt market have driven strong long-term returns, despite recent near-term pressures on revenue and occupancy. NSA's internalization of management on PRO properties and limited new supply in key markets position it for future growth, but the current valuation appears fully priced.
