AMH Stock Recent News

The 90-day tariff pause offers short-term relief, but long-term trade uncertainty and recession risks persist, making it critical to stay vigilant and strategic. Despite market volatility, now is the time to deploy cash into high-quality, dividend-paying stocks rather than raising cash. Focus on buying opportunities in dividend growth stocks, while being cautious with REITs like ARE and REXR due to trade war impacts.

Tampa's strong job and population growth make it a prime real estate location, but supply and demand dynamics are crucial for investment decisions. The high housing supply in Tampa has led to a temporary downturn in home prices, while limited retail space has driven up retail rents. Other property sectors have limited supply and much stronger outlooks within Tampa.

This article is part of our monthly series where we highlight five large-cap, relatively safe, dividend-paying companies offering significant discounts to their historical norms.

Ahead of the April 2nd tariff unveiling, US equity markets were under renewed pressure this week on downbeat data showing a further dip in consumer confidence and hotter-than-expected PCE inflation. As a turbulent first quarter wraps up, the updated GDPNow - the Atlanta Fed's closely watched GDP tracking model - forecasts growth of -2.8% overall and -0.5% on a "gold-adjusted basis." Posting weekly declines for the seventh time in the past nine weeks, the S&P 500 finished lower by 1.5% - extending its drawdown to 9.3% from its record-highs.

While the S&P 500 and other major benchmarks entered "correction territory" this month for the first time since 2023, U.S. REITs have meaningfully outperformed the broader equity market since mid-January. The rebound follows a truly forgettable three-year period for REITs dating back to the start of the Fed's rate hiking cycle in which REITs have accumulated 40 percentage-points of underperformance. REITs remain as unloved as ever: The number of publicly listed REITs declined for a fourth-straight year in 2024. As an asset class, REITs are the single-largest "underweight" among institutional investors.

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."

In Part 3 of our Earnings Recap, we present a sector-by-sector breakdown of the Losers of REIT Earnings Season, discussing incremental positives/negatives and noting the individual standouts. Commercial Mortgage REITs were the "biggest loser" of REIT earnings season after results showed ongoing problems in the office space and a significant deterioration in multifamily bridge loan performance. Results from Hotel REITs were also disappointing given the record-levels of travel demand, as margin pressures from higher labor costs have taken a sizable bite out of bottom-line profitability.

US equity markets tumbled this week - suffering its worst week in six months - as disappointing employment reports and fast-shifting tariff policy failed to improve skittish investor sentiment. Reminiscent of Fed Chair Powell's infamous August 2022 "some pain ahead" speech, the Trump Administration warned of a "little disturbance" and a necessary "detox period" for the U.S. economy. Softer-than-expected employment data this week fueled doubts that sweeping overhauls to trade policy and fiscal spending can be accomplished without risking a recession.

This week features the largest list of dividend increases ever, with 50 companies, including Coca-Cola extending its 63-year streak with a 5.2% increase. My strategy focuses on companies with consistent dividend growth and outperforming benchmarks, using data from the "U.S. Dividend Champions" spreadsheet and NASDAQ. I recommend the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF for broad U.S. equity exposure and the Cohen & Steers REIT & Preferred Income Fund for REITs.
