Clear evidence of a growth slowdown and moderating inflation has increased the market's conviction Fed rate cuts are imminent. REITs in sectors such as senior housing, single-family rental, cold warehouse storage, and wireless towers are a compelling opportunity with visible, defensive cash flows that offer attractive growth under a variety of economic outcomes.

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.
