Why Elme Communities Is A Buy At The Right Price
Despite federal workforce layoffs, Elme's limited exposure to federal jobs and strong portfolio fundamentals, including high occupancy and rent growth, support its stability. Management anticipates steady revenue and expense growth, with additional NOI expected from managed Wi-Fi initiatives and operational cost savings. Given current economic uncertainties and Elme's fair valuation, I recommend a 'Hold' on the stock until a more attractive entry point around a 15x P/FFO range.

Inflation Isn't Dead Yet
US equity markets flirted with fresh record-highs this week while benchmark interest rates hovered around two-month lows as investors weighed positive earnings news against uncomfortable hot inflation data. Complicating the policy outlook for the Federal Reserve, CPI data showed the fastest monthly rise in consumer prices since August, prompting a pledge from Powell for "more work to do." Snapping a two-week losing streak, the S&P 500 rebounded by 1.5%, closing fractionally below its prior record-high set in late January. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 rallied nearly 3%.
