Trump's Return Could Ignite These 3 REITs
In an election year where Donald Trump’s candidacy could significantly influence market dynamics, investors are strategically positioning their portfolios to capitalize on sectors that might benefit from his policy priorities. Real estate investment trusts (REITs) such as Host Hotels & Resorts (NYSE:HST), Iron Mountain Inc. (NYSE:IRM), and Brixmor Property Group (NYSE:BRX) offer unique opportunities in this context. Trump’s previous tenure highlighted a strong focus on economic growth, deregulation, and infrastructure development, which could bode well for these REITs.
