Owning MREITs will always require nimble management by the investor, and that’s our charge as a portfolio manager.
If you’re inclined to tumble around in those turbulent waters, go for it. But that’s precisely what we don’t want to do.
Our low-beta, short-term corporate bond ETFs aim to anchor the portfolio against volatility, while the balance of the portfolio aims to throw off substantial dividends and interest.
the entity that matters most to the mREITS industry is the Fed, and we think a continuing policy of low short-term rates will allow them to arbitrage quite profitably.
