U.S. real estate funds getting the whack recently.
No, not an enduring trend at this time; but this sector is getting the whack recently.
IYR , one etf that provides a good representation of this sector got the whack on Tuesday to the tune of about - 1.5%, had a slight positive (+.15%) on Wednesday and getting the whack again today around a -1.6%.
Other etf and active mutual funds in this space have similar results.
