M*: Our Favorite Domestic REIT Funds

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: Real estate funds can play an important role in diversifying a portfolio, because real estate returns tend not to be too highly correlated with either the broader stock market or the bond market. Also, because real estate investment trusts tend to pay healthy dividends, these stocks are often seen as income plays. That has broadened their appeal in recent years, as low interest rates have left many investors seeking income wherever they can find it.
Regards,
Ted

    Tough year for REIT funds - all in red. Don't see much upside. Perhaps Fidelity REIT Income is a better option for domestic REIT.
