After a short spell of business downturn during which it struggled and gasped for breath, authorities of UAC Property Development Company (UPDC) say they have re-engineered the company with solid strategy that has set it on the path of growth. Part of this plan is to leverage its over 24 years experience developing first class real estate properties in Nigeria to deliver over 1,500 housing units to the real estate market over the next five years. The plan leading to the development of the new estates is to be driven by the strategy which Odunayo Ojo, the company’s CEO, revealed at an interactive session with newsmen in Lagos recently. Ojo disclosed that they took some corporate actions recently one of which was completing the unbundling of the company’s interest in the UPDC Real Estate Investment Trust (UPDC REIT) to its shareholders. “UPDC, however, holds 5 percent residual stake in the REIT as a sponsor to the REIT,” he said, noting that this action would help UPDC to direct its focus on its core activities while unlocking additional value for its shareholders by granting them direct ownership in a REIT that has paid dividends since its inception.

China Locks Down 17.5 Million In Shenzhen As Daily COVID Cases Soar To 2-Year High Everybody from automobile manufacturers to tablet-makers around the globe better watch out: supplies of vital microchips and other high-tech components are about to tighten once again now that China is locking down Shenzhen, known as the country''s Silicon Valley due to COVID, due to the rising COVID numbers that are once again forcing lockdowns across China. On Sunday, China placed the city''s 17.5MM residents on a lockdown that’s supposed to last until March 20, Bloomberg reports . It has become the latest threat to Chinese stock and bond markets, as cases 2x nationwide have been infected, up from nearly 3,400. So much for Beijing''s "COVID Zero" policy (which authorities were reportedly on the brink of abandoning), one of Beijing''s biggest policy favors in recent memory. The new wide-ranging lockdown in Shenzhen is an expansion of earlier restrictions placed on the city’s business district. Although cases are climbing throughout the country, the surge in infections is thought to be linked to the neighboring city of Hong Kong, where about 300K people are currently in isolation or under home quarantine, and where new infections are being recorded at a rate of roughly 10K per days.
