Why REITs Have Been Crashing This Year

Over the last two years the majority of the real estate investment trust sector has been taking a beating. Just by taking a look at the Vanguard Real Estate Index Fund ETF, we can see that after REITs recovered from the pandemic plunge, things began to take a downturn starting in late 2021. Since March of this year, Vanguard’s REIT index fund hasn’t seen much movement up or down; rather, it’s just been moving sideways. Other alternative asset classes, including business development companies and even the broad market overall, have been recovering this year. But REITs have been stalling out in terms of recovery. As an investor who holds a lot of REITs, it’s something that I’ve been keeping an eye on for a while.

There've been a couple issues facing the REIT sector, so in today’s video we’re gonna cover the issues that these companies are dealing with right now. I’ll also give my opinion as to when this sector will finally start seeing a good recovery. And then I’ll also present a few REITs that are so heavily discounted that they’re now offering exceptionally high yields and have good growth potential.
