USRT: Binary Outcomes Based On Possible Nadir In CPI (Rating Downgrade)
The demand side has been fine, but the underperformance of some constituent parts shows that it's down to costs of capital and, therefore, inflation assumptions. The CPI reading was cool, and the continued fall in oil prices could mean meaningful help to upcoming readings that could counteract otherwise troublesome inflation expectations surveys. Inflation expectations are back to local records, and therefore we avoid iShares Core U.S. REIT ETF and other REIT bets for now, though we think the coming CPI will surprise markets.

Are REITs The New Safe Haven?
REITs have remained resilient during the market crash due to their reasonable valuations and fundamental advantages, including isolation from tariffs and inflation hedging. The broader market crash is attributed to weak consumer sentiment, high inflation, tariff uncertainty, and tepid employment numbers, compounded by extreme valuations. REITs offer steady, predictable growth through long-term rental contracts and are trading at attractive valuations, especially among small and mid-cap REITs.

USRT: Large Cap U.S. REITs Likely To Trail Small Peers In 2025
The iShares Core U.S. REIT ETF tracks 134 U.S. REITs with a focus on large capitalization REITs. Wall Street estimates suggest USRT's top 10 holdings offer a modest upside in 2025. For 2025, I believe USRT should deliver a total return marginally above 7%.
