Sticky Inflation Is Back In Focus: Time To Consider High Yields
With inflation sticky and rate cuts unlikely in 2024, investors should consider repositioning into high-yield stocks to offset volatility. Ares Capital (ARCC) and Blackstone Secured Lending (BXSL) offer strong fundamentals, high yields, and benefit from higher-for-longer interest rates. Verizon (VZ) and Realty Income (O) provide attractive yields and blue-chip stability, despite near-term headwinds from elevated rates.

How To Play REITs From Here
REITs are attractive for income-focused investors, especially retirees, due to required high payouts and current undervaluation from elevated interest rates. Interest rates heavily influence REIT performance; while rates remain high, this is an opportunity to accumulate quality REITs for long-term gains. I highlight Agree Realty, NNN REIT, and Alexandria Real Estate Equities as fundamentally sound picks with double-digit upside potential over the next 1–2 years.

Are You A Low-Risk Investor Looking For Steady Income? Then Consider These Yields Over 5%
I focus on reliable, income-generating REITs for steady dividend growth and portfolio diversification, prioritizing income over high-risk, volatile stocks. NNN REIT offers a 35-year track record of dividend increases, conservative payout ratios, and strong fundamentals, making it ideal for dependable income seekers. W. P. Carey, despite a recent dividend cut, has reset for future growth, maintains solid AFFO coverage, and offers a high yield with improving fundamentals.

XLRE: Downgrade To Sell, As 5-Year Rough Patch Continues
REITs, especially XLRE, have delivered mediocre returns since the pandemic, barely outperforming T-bills and offering little upside beyond dividends. Rising interest rates and market indexation have eroded REITs' traditional advantages, making them less attractive for long-term, sleep-at-night strategies. XLRE's largest holdings show lackluster performance, with only a few contributors; the sector remains vulnerable to further downside risk.
