REITs to the rescue! Investing during a rate hiking cycle

The Fed has finally admitted how hot inflation is running - and we could now be looking at multiple rate hikes over the next several months, at a minimum. This means a rough go for certain groups such as technology.

However, there’s one asset class which has been shown to outperform during rate hiking cycles - real estate investment trusts (REITs). Over a 2.5 year stretch the Fed raised rates seventeen times. During that time, REITs outperformed the S&P 500 by more than double.

Right now the rate hiking cycle has just begun, which presents an incredible opportunity for high quality REITs to shine. And there’s one research service on Seeking Alpha which uses their proprietary system to spot undervalued REITs with strong yields, exceptional growth potential and a solid margin of safety.
