  • Strategic Hotels & Resorts Doubles Market Cap, Prepares for Debt Maturities [View article]
    From the annual report "Suspension of Stock Dividends. On November 4, 2008, SHR's board of directors elected to suspend the quarterly dividend to holders of shares of SHR common stock. On February 24, 2009, SHR's board of directors elected to suspend the quarterly dividend to holders of shares of SHR preferred stock. "

    STRATEGIC HOTEL PF B (BEE-PB) is looking good at this point. Since March it's gone from 1.55 to 8.50 today. The dividends have historically returned about 2.00 per year for a 8.5% preferred rate before the dividends were haulted. The purchase of 10MM worth of these shares were sold on Sept 17th, rocketing the share price from 5.5 to 8.5 in a matter of days.

  • Strategic Hotels & Resorts: A Five Star Hotel REIT on the Cheap [View article]
    Of late the demand is certainly there for the stock, high money flow index. I think the following title summed it up nicely:

    "Lodging Industry RevPAR Declines Worst Ever: All Segments Down Significantly and No Upturn Until 2011"

    The article goes on to talk about how the W Hotel in San Fran sold at around 5 Cap, even in this market. This bodes well for top-notch properties, and BEE has them-a-plenty. If headcounts are reduced, as BEE has been committing to doing, then they should be able to find buyers should the RevPAR still be low enough not to meet the debt service schedule by 2011/12 crunch time.

    Indeed, Aherrera, I'm rethinking that $30 number in light of the economy as well. Thank you for your comments.
