Portfolio Pulse from Kevin Vandenboss
Three high-yield REITs, SL Green Realty Corp. (SLG), Highwoods Properties Inc. (HIW), and Newlake Capital Partners Inc. (NLCP), have shown impressive total returns over the past three months, driven by factors like Fed cut hopes and strong operational performance. SLG and HIW reported mixed Q4 results but maintained strong dividend yields and FFO coverage, while NLCP, focusing on cannabis industry leases, also demonstrated robust returns and dividend growth despite its high payout ratio.
