Any reason why BCPT is dropping so much?
Is it just because of the increased chance of a no deal Brexit causing London property to lose value?
The NAV is dropping slightly, which is likely dues to a difficult market for commercial property (I donβt know their direct holdings, but retail space isnβt great currently).
The change however is driven by the traded price not the NAV, itβs at a discount of +16% currently, which is market sentiment driven rather than tangible change in portfolio (it may be moving faster than the portfolio and the NAV will follow, or it may be wrong and work back towards the NAV).
