description: "Iggy's Journal: Mapletree Industrial Trust Says 'No Certainty' on a US Data Centre Sale. Here's Why My Zone Call Doesn't Move Yet1 September 2026, AMOvernight Read:Wall Street pulled back Monday on renewed Middle East tension. US forces struck rocket launchers on Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz, Iran launched retaliatory strikes on US positions, and markets responded the way they usually do to that kind of escalation, Dow down 0.70% to 53,185.90, S&P 500 down 0.33% to 7,686.14, Nasdaq holding up relatively better at down 0.12% to 26,370.89 as energy names rallied and offset some of the tech weakness. Back home, the STI actually climbed 0.97% to 5,755.36, a strong session led by the banking trio, UOB up 1.91% to S$41.56, DBS up 1.64% to S$77.40, OCBC up 1.45% to S$31.52. Separately, Mapletree Industrial Trust said there's "no certainty" any deal will result from a report on a potential US data centre divestment. My Personal Take:On MIT, I want to be precise about what this statement actually is and isn't. It's a denial that any deal is certain, not a denial that talks exist, and either way it doesn't touch what's actually driving my Zone 4- call on this name. That call rests on gearing at 37.5%, breaching my 35% ceiling, and portfolio occupancy at 90.7%, missing my 95% prime-asset floor, both balance sheet facts, not speculation about a US data centre sale. If a real divestment eventually materializes and it's the North American segment specifically, that could genuinely move the occupancy number, since that's the segment dragging the portfolio average down. Not financial advice.

- **Benjamin · 2026-09-01T04:04:13.000Z**: selling the north american block lifts occupancy by removing the drag rather than filling it, so that number moves faster than the portfolio actually improves. the gearing leg is the cleaner read.
