REIT ETFs

REIT ETFs hold baskets of real estate investment trusts, spreading a single position across apartments, warehouses, data centers, cell towers, and mortgage lenders. REITs must pay out most of their taxable income, which keeps yields elevated — but the funds carry real interest-rate and property-cycle risk. Daily-reset leveraged and inverse products are excluded.
