First Reit announces proposed rights issue at $0.20 per unit to raise $158.2million. This is more bad news for First Reit investors following a more than 20% drop. Anyone selling their investments?

Here's what I don't get. Am I supposed to buy more or should I run when there are news like that that comes out?

The proposed rights issue is indeed dilutive. As per the presentation, the fund would be used to repay the S$140 million difference between the amount of S$400 million debt and the maximum amount of S$260 million under the Refinancing Facility. Coupled with the recent master lease restructuring, First REIT fundamental has changed.
