In Part 2 of our Earnings Recap, we present a sector-by-sector breakdown of the Winners of REIT Earnings Season, discussing incremental positives/negatives and noting the individual standouts. Healthcare REITs were the leaders this earnings season, with results showing robust momentum in senior housing fundamentals, while tenant operator issues improved across other healthcare sub-sectors. Results from Net Lease, Casino, and Residential Mortgage REITs - several of the most rate-sensitive sectors - were also surprisingly steady despite the interest rate turbulence in late 2024.

US equity markets slumped this week - while benchmark interest rates tumbled to two-month lows - after downbeat economic data and cautious corporate commentary sparked concern over slowing economic growth. Compounded by some unsettling COVID-related headlines late in the week, investors adopted a more "risk off" position after consumer and business survey data picked up a sudden negative sentiment shift. After notching a pair of record-highs early in the week, a two-day tumble sent the S&P 500 lower by 1.6% on the week. Small-Caps and Mid-Caps both dipped over 3%.

I screened for high-quality, competitively advantaged REITs to deliver 29% annualized returns in 2025; the portfolio is on target with a 5.4% YTD return. Top performers include Terreno (+13.5%), EastGroup (+12.7%), and Realty Income (+7.9%), while Ryman Hospitality (-4.6%) and Alexandria (-0.7%) lag. Strong balance sheets and strategic market positioning are key factors for REITs like EastGroup, Terreno, and Rexford, supporting my buy and strong buy ratings.
