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%.

Residential real estate supply is limited due to construction costs relative to NOI. In 2025 and 2026, housing will be increasingly undersupplied. The undersupply should drive up property revenues until such a point that development becomes viable.

USRT invests in U.S. REITs, historically underperforming in economic recessions and sensitive to rate changes.

We're at the halfway point of another consequential real estate earnings season, with 75 of the roughly 150 equity REITs and 19 of 38 mortgage REITs now having reported results. Amid an otherwise underwhelming earnings season across the broader equity market, REIT earnings results thus far have been materially better than anticipated, providing an added tailwind to rate-related optimism.

Jobs Data Dilemma
U.S. equity markets posted mixed performance as investors parsed a perplexing slate of employment data, showing clear signs of cooling across essentially all metrics except for the "headline" payrolls print. The BLS reported that the U.S. economy added a robust 272k jobs in May, but prior months were revised substantially lower while the twin Household Survey showed a half-million job losses. The conflicting - and perhaps erroneous - employment data delayed the expected timeline for the Federal Reserve's rate-cutting cycle, while also raising the prospects of a data-driven policy error.
