Low interest rates, Mr. Harris' advantage, concerns about the economy?
1) Interest rate reduction cycle leads to lower interest rates
At the FOMC meeting on September 17-18, a rate cut is almost certain, with a high probability of a 0.25% cut. However, Fed watchers point out that a 0.5% cut is also possible. It is expected that the rate cut will continue at the FOMC meetings in November and December. With the start of the rate cut cycle, a decrease in interest rates is expected in the future.
2) Senator Harris is favored in the US presidential election
Regarding the upcoming US presidential election in November, after the televised debate on September 10th, it became clear that Mr. Harris has the advantage. Following the debate, the probability of Mr. Harris winning has increased and surpassed Mr. Trump.

1) Lower interest rates are a tailwind for REITs
REITs raise funds through borrowing to invest in real estate, so they benefit from reduced interest burden in a period of interest rate cuts.
2) Will Harris's housing support measures benefit REIT investment targets?
Harris, who is leading in the US presidential election, has proposed housing support as part of her economic policy. It is expected to benefit the real estate market, which is the investment target of REITs. However, there is a strong sense of uncertainty surrounding the US presidential election. In such situations, similar to the following 3), REITs may be preferred.

3) REITs are preferred in an environment of economic slowdown concerns and high levels of uncertainty
REITs have characteristics such as stable rental income based on medium to long-term contracts and high dividend yields. Therefore, in market environments with concerns of economic slowdown and high uncertainty, there is a tendency for REITs to be preferred. Based on past experiences, during economic recessions in the USA, the S&P US REIT Index has outperformed the S&P 500 Index.

"Historically, REITs have provided competitive total returns based on high and stable dividend income and long-term capital appreciation. Additionally, with relatively low correlation with other assets, REITs excel in portfolio diversification, reducing the overall risk of the portfolio and enhancing returns." (From the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts)
While the S&P 500 index has been sluggish since the second half of the year, the S&P US REIT index has been performing well and maintaining an upward trend.
The timing when the S&P USA REIT index sharply rebounded was mid-July when rate cuts began to be considered, coinciding with a period when economic indicators hinted at concerns about economic slowdown. Subsequently, it was reported that Mr. Harris proposed housing support as part of economic policy, further shaping the situation. Considering the possibility that the situation of 'low interest rates, Harris' advantage, and economic concerns' may continue, the upward trend of US REITs may continue.

えるみー : I feel that the meaning is different between raising and lowering interest rates ahead of time and being rushed up and down by the market. Now it's the latter.
