Pat McKeough responds to many requests from Members of his Inner Circle for advice on specific investments as well as questions on investment strategy and the economy. Every week, his comments and recommendations on the most intriguing questions of the past week go out to all Inner Circle Members. And each week we offer you a report on one of the stocks profiled in these Q&A sessions. We give you Pat’s buy-hold-sell recommendation as well as his analysis of the stock. This is part of the specific buy, hold and sell advice we offer you in our daily posts. Every week you get “A Stock to Sell” on Monday, “Best Canadian Stocks” on Tuesday, and “U.S. Stock Picks” on Thursday. This week an Inner Circle member asked us about several real estate investment trusts (REITs) that focus on industrial properties. Dream Industrial REIT, formerly Dundee Industrial REIT, owns buildings spread fairly evenly across Canada. Pure Industrial REIT also owns buildings across the country, but with almost half of them in Ontario. Both host a number of well-established tenants. Pat looks at the revenues and cash flow generated by these two REITs and their ability to sustain their distributions and high dividend yields. Q: Hi, Pat. I have a significant weighting in real estate investment trusts, including these two industrial REITs: Dream Industrial REIT and Pure Industrial REIT. Can you please comment on industrial REITs in general and these specifically? Thanks....

Today’s tip: “There are three ways you can ensure that you get the maximum profit, and tax benefit, from your tax free savings account.”
The federal government first made the tax free savings account (TFSA) available to investors in January 2009. These accounts let you earn investment income — including interest, dividends and capital gains — tax free. You could contribute $5,000 in 2009 to start your tax free savings account.

THOMSON REUTERS CORP. (Toronto symbol TRI; www.thomsonreuters.com) is seeing higher demand for its financial information products for the first time since the 2008 economic crisis. Sales at its legal and tax and accounting businesses are also improving.
In the three months ended September 30, 2014, Thomson’s overall revenue rose 1.1%, to $3.11 billion from $3.07 billion a year earlier (all amounts except share price and market cap in U.S. dollars).
The financial division’s revenue (54% of the total) fell 0.7%. But banks and other clients are buying more products than they’re cancelling, which should raise this division’s future revenue.
Revenue rose 1.3% at the legal-products division (28%), 11.5% at tax and accounting (10%) and 3.3% at intellectual property and science (8%).

Recently we had a question from an Inner Circle member about one of America’s best-known venture capital firms, KKR &Co. Previously known as Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., the company earned notoriety when its leveraged buyout of Nabisco in the 1980s became the subject of a best-selling book and TV movie, Barbarians at the Gate. Pat looks at the company’s varied activities in the public, private and capital markets. He also assesses the strategies it is pursuing as it makes a flurry of deals aided by low borrowing rates.
Q: Pat: I was wondering if you could give me any information about KKR & Co. Your thoughts on it would be appreciated.
A: KKR & Co. LP (formerly Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. LP; symbol KKR on New York; www.kkr.com) is an asset manager with 14 offices across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australia.
The company serves three main markets: private (investment funds); public (leveraged loans, high-yield bonds, special situation assets, distressed assets and rescue, debtor-in-possession and exit financings); and capital (debt/equity financing).

Today’s tip: “To get the maximum reward from rising stocks, it’s essential to pick stocks with clear growth prospects and not simply momentum stocks with uncertain futures.”
By definition, growth stocks are companies that have above-average growth prospects. They are firms whose earnings growth has been above the market average, and is likely to remain above average. It is often the case that they pay small dividends or none at all. Instead, they re-invest their cash flow in the business, to promote their growth.
