The coronavirus has left 13.3% of people in the United States without jobs. Retail spending is down about 8% compared to pre-pandemic times. Earnings from big-name companies like Nike Inc. and Costco Corp. have missed already-low expectations.

Yet, in the face of these stats, the stock market has been rising.

Since its March low, the Dow Jones and S&P 500 have risen about 37%. The Nasdaq is at an all-time high, up 45%.

The V-shaped bounce off of these lows has been completely unprecedented. But stocks aren't the only asset investors are flocking to…

Last Monday, pending home sales for May were released. Coming in at a whopping 44.3% spike, the number overtook the 15% expectation, making for the largest one-month jump in history.

In the face of low economic numbers, real estate, just like stocks, is surging. Realtor.com reports that over the course of 2020, inventory has declined by 15.7%, all while average listing prices rose 3.8% – both indications of a market in high demand.

But you don't have to buy property to invest and make money in the real estate sector.

By , Executive Producer, Money Morning - • Print | Email

While the media has focused solely on the demise of commercial real estate during the COVID-19 crisis, some sectors will see a boost in the aftermath of the economic shutdown.

First, e-commerce will expand in the years ahead, which will keep the economy growing.

While it is indeed horrible news for mall owners, it is good news for the owners of warehouses and distribution centers that service e-commerce.

Industrial REITs own precisely that type of property and should survive the crisis and thrive for decades on the other side of it all.

Today, we're looking at the three best REITs to buy in this space for May.

This Under-the-Radar REIT Is an Excellent Value Right Now

By , Money Morning - • Print | Email

If you're investing in REITs, the state of the 2020 economy is apparent after looking at just two charts of the sector.

On one hand, you have healthcare REITs, data center REITs, and cell tower REITs.

They've all bounced back sharply due to the unprecedented response from Congress and the Federal Reserve.

However, commercial real estate and lodging REITs continue to suffer due to slumping consumer demand and the wave of expected defaults on the horizon.

With that in mind, there is one classification of REITs that continues to slide under the radar due to the expected macro-economic downturn in the months ahead.

By , Money Morning - • Print | Email

The 2020 financial sell-off due to coronavirus is still in the early innings.

Although the markets have stormed back since hitting fresh lows in mid-March, we still face an extraordinary task for the economy.

However, data center REITs, healthcare REITs, and cell tower REITs have all made for solid investments in the long-term and provide a mix of appreciation upside and strong dividends.

Today, I want to talk about another classification of REIT that will do very well thanks to the backing of state governments and the federal government in the years ahead.

Their contracts are effectively guaranteed, making two companies – with dividends of 14.2% and 12.5% – an absolute steal at today's levels.
