Interest rate cuts are back on the table. The next one will likely be on June 18th. This is a strong catalyst for beaten-down small-cap REITs.

Two high-yield stocks just slashed their dividends—but that might be the best thing that ever happened to them. Insiders are loading up, and the market is mispricing these recovery plays with massive upside potential. Lock in yields up to 11% on these overlooked income machines before Mr. Market wakes up!

US equity markets remained under pressure this week as encouraging inflation data and a deal to avoid a government shutdown were offset by further tariff escalations and weak sentiment data. Markets struggled to agree on how the FOMC will interpret the latest economic data, with recent "hard data" showing encouraging trends while "softer" survey data has painted a far-bleaker outlook. Following its worst week in six months, the S&P 500 finished lower by another 2.3% this week - its fourth-straight week of declines - which dragged the index into "correction territory."

Armada Hoffler's 32% dividend cut is a strategic move to ensure financial health amid high rates and market uncertainty, not a sign of distress.

I rate Armada Hoffler Properties a buy because the stock is selling at a large discount to NAV. The equity dilution and high leverage even for a REIT does not justify the current market price. Investors can earn a nice return on the dividend while they wait for the market to realize the value of AHH's assets.
