Cognizant Recently cognizant have changed their internet wfh allowance policy.we use to get 1800 per month as internet allowance without submitting any bills or transaction details. Now they changed the policy as we need to apply for icici/axis/hdfc credit card from there we need to make the transaction and reimburse the same. I am ok with everything but why i need to apply for credit card? How a company can force me to have a credit card? It will directly/indirectly alter the credit score right? Cogniza
not a lot of action in today’s stock market.

What’s your reasoning? The usually Lazy Portfolio allocation does include REITS, so why do you want to increase your exposure?
Why would you want more exposure to REITs? Many commercial rent payments are past due / skipped, malls are closing, interest rate is near zero and can only go up. We have already seen REITs unable to roll over their repo positions or meet margin calls. All indicators point to a disaster in this industry.
Maybe in the future once the crash occurs? This a long term perspective
For background, by including REITs, I'd be able to better diversify and still achieve high return on investment. Ideally I would have been trying to invest in rental property, but it's difficult to at this time in Chicago, so this would provide me with some of the diversification I'm looking for.
My 401K allocation is consists of 65% Fidelity S&P 500 fund, 25% vanguard total int'l stock market fund, and 10% vanguard total bond market fund. This is my selection based on what's offered by EY. We have about 30 or so picks for our 401K including target fund dates.
My Roth IRAs accounts have a similar allocation to the one above.
I'm thinking of putting 15% into REIT allocation. And then maybe shifting int'l to 20% and S&P 500 to 55%
Currently the age of 30
I allocate 10% of my roth to REITs. 401(k) doesn’t offer them, otherwise I would there as well
Pro
No comment on if you should or not, but a tax advantaged spot like a Roth would be the best place to hold this part of your overall portfolio
No

I wouldn’t fuck with REIT’s at all right now

To add: commercial real estate is getting demolished right now. People are learning how to work from home completely now. Companies are investing in ways to make this easier. The desire to rent out office space is going to diminish and I can’t see anyone jumping to sign leases anytime soon. Many tenants are going to go belly up and there will be more vacancies as well
