After a strong August, REITs faded slightly in September (-0.73%), pulling the REIT sector's year-to-date average total return down to (-1.74%). Mid-cap REITs (-0.92%) averaged the lowest total return in September. Large caps (-0.29%), micro caps (-0.79%), and small caps (-0.83%) averaged modestly smaller declines. Only 37.4% of REIT securities had a positive total return in September.

Americold shares have dropped 65% in five years despite its substantial cold storage market position and strong long-term industry trends. COLD's decline stems from prior overvaluation, inventory cycle normalization post-pandemic, and institutional selling that overshot to the downside. Industry-wide headwinds, not company-specific issues, have pressured COLD and its main competitor, but fundamentals and margins remain resilient near cyclical lows.

During times of turbulence and uncertainty in the markets, many investors turn to dividend-yielding stocks. These are often companies that have high free cash flows and reward shareholders with a high dividend payout.

I see extreme undervaluation in certain high-yield dividend stocks facing temporary macro headwinds. Prices are far below historical highs. These stocks operate in critical supply chains, with strong balance sheets and resilient demand, making them positioned for a market rebound. Despite near-term challenges, long-term tailwinds and industry growth trends suggest these overlooked stocks offer compelling risk/reward potential.

Americold Realty Trust is trading at all-time lows despite its critical role in global cold storage infrastructure and long-term industry growth potential. COLD's investment case rests on secular demand, industry consolidation opportunities, and a deeply discounted valuation with a covered 7%+ dividend yield. Operational headwinds, industry oversupply, and cost inflation have pressured fundamentals, but COLD's balance sheet and dividend coverage remain solid.

The most oversold stocks in the real estate sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.
