REIT Earnings Scorecard https://lnkd.in/e_Q8FrFk Over 200 U.S. REITs and homebuilders have reported third-quarter earnings results over the past six weeks, providing critical information on the state of the commercial and residential real estate industry. In this report, we highlight some quick incremental positives and negatives we've observed across each of the major property sectors. Next week, we'll publish our detailed "Winners & Losers" Report. Beneath the election season volatility, real estate earnings season was generally in-line with expectations, as notable strength from retail, office, and residential REITs was offset by softness from hotel REITs. Of the 103 equity REITs that provide full-year FFO guidance, 58 (56%) raised their outlook, 32 (31%) maintained their outlook, while 13 (13%) lowered the mid-point of their FFO target. Winners included Data Center, Strip Center, and Senior Housing REITs. Results from other Residential REITs were mixed, as favorable expense trends were offset by rent growth deflation. Losers included Hotel, Self-Storage, Cell Tower, and Cold Storage REITs.

Inflation Week REIT Daily Recap: https://lnkd.in/eYeBCKqG U.S. equity markets set fresh record-highs Monday- rising for a fifth-straight session- while the US Dollar climbed to one-year highs as investors weighed policy priorities from the incoming Trump Administration.

A Decisive Realignment Real Estate Weekly Outlook: https://lnkd.in/eyE8gCun U.S. equity markets soared to record highs this week after President-elect Trump scored a surprisingly decisive election victory, including a likely "trifecta" of Republican legislative control in Congress. The outcome sparked powerful moves across global financial markets as investors priced in a combination of domestic-focused and "pro-growth" economic policies but also reflected concern over deficits and immigration policy. Characteristic of the "Trump trade" dynamic, smaller-cap companies led the surge, outperforming mega-cap technology and international-heavy peers. The S&P Small-Cap 600 soared 9%, outpacing 5% gains from the S&P 500. Real estate equities were laggards this week as benchmark interest rates hovered around four-month highs, offsetting some likely longer-term tailwinds related to tax policy and domestic-focused economic policies. Bond markets also posted strong gains this week - recovering from a brief post-election dip - after Federal Reserve Chair Powell stated that the Trump victory would have no "near-term" impact on U.S. monetary policy. While shorter-term rates rose on expectations of fewer Fed rate cuts, longer-term rates declined on a pull-back in inflation expectations.
