3 REITs to Sell in October
The potential for high returns and stable income streams have made real estate investment trusts, or REITs, a popular investment vehicle. However, not all REITs are created equal, especially with a potential recession hanging overhead. On today’s list, I take a look at three REITs to sell. The reasoning for my bearishness on these particular REITs stems from the fact that their area of focus — hotels and resorts — has limited upside and a lot of downside risk in the current economic environment. The lodging sector is showing signs of improvement after the pandemic, but it is not out of the woods yet. Occupancy rates remain below pre-pandemic levels , and inflation and recession threaten to stop the recovery in its tracks. As consumers continue to rein in discretionary spending, they are less likely to spend money on travel, thus reducing demand for lodging. Here are three REITs to sell. PK Park Hotels Resorts $11.26 HST Host Hotels Resorts $15.88 PEB Pebblebrook Hotel Trust $14.51 Park Hotels Resorts (PK) Source: Shutterstock Park Hotels Resorts (NYSE: PK ) is one of the largest publicly traded lodging REITs with “49 premium-branded hotels and resorts with over 30,000 rooms primarily located in prime city center and resort locations,” according to the company.
