Marc Faber said RE in America is cheap, relatively compared to other asset classes (link here). I feel the same way, but why I never get a buy signal? After revisit the data, I realized I made a mistake. By law REITs are supposed to pay out large portion of income. Here is an example.
Avalon Bay, a DC based luxury apartment community, has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust and would not be subject to federal corporate income taxes if it distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders.I forgot the dividend. When reviewing the charts, I should have used the adjusted close price, but not the close price which is pure cash and ignored the accrued dividend.
Here is the revisiting of the REIT ETF REZ I used as proxy.
(insert chart)
Using adjusted close, it was actually closed right at the 10-Month MA in Oct and above that since the Nov bar. Action I am going to add REZ to my portfolio based on chart reading in the next couple weeks.
