Real estate investment trust
Article Abstract:
Real estate investment trusts (REITs) underperformed the market in mid-1997 with rising prices and falling yields for bonds. However, REITS with good cash flows and low betas may be good investments for those who are risk-averse over the long term. The rapid pace of acquisitions is the most noticeable trend for REITs, and this should persist. Shopping centers, lodging, and apartments in the Southeast appear to be good REIT investments.

Real estate investment trust
Article Abstract:
There has been a merger boom for real estate investment trusts (REITs) in the 1990s, fueled in large part by lower interest rates resulting from the Asian financial crisis. However, there has been little, if any, impact on REIT prices, although REIT capitalization has increased tenfold since the 1980s. Investors should find REITS a safe haven in the late 1990s, and some selective stocks have good potential through the years 2000-2002.
