Eyes On The ECB

U.S. equity and bond markets staged a late-week rebound, erasing early-week declines prompted by disappointing Eurozone inflation data, after the crucial PCE inflation gauge posted its smallest increase of 2024. Posting a second week of modest declines following four-straight weekly gains, the S&P 500 finished lower by 0.4% on the week, but still notched its best month since February. Real estate equities also rebounded following steep declines in the prior week as a handful of REITs provided positive business updates ahead of the annual REITweek industry conference.

Fed Looms As Earnings Begin

U.S. equity markets notched another week of gains after a busy slate of economic data and corporate earnings results were broadly consistent with a "soft landing" trend for the domestic economy. Ahead of the Federal Reserve's first policy meeting of 2024, the FOMC's favored inflation gauge - Core PCE - showed a "2-handle" for the first time in nearly two years. Notching a series of record highs through the week, the S&P 500 advanced 1.2%, extending its impressive rally since late October to 12 of the past 13 weeks.

REIT Earnings Preview: Animal Spirits Revived?

Real estate earnings season kicked into gear this week, and over the next month, we'll hear results from 175 equity REITs, 40 mortgage REITs, and dozens of housing industry companies. The sector with perhaps the most to gain from moderating inflation and a normalization in Fed monetary policy, REITs enter earnings season with upside momentum after a dismal eighteen-month stretch. Sentiment and macroeconomic conditions have improved significantly in the past quarter, fueled by several months of encouraging inflation data pointing once again towards a "soft landing" for the domestic economy.

Posting a second week of modest gains following a four-week skid, the S&P 500 advanced 0.5%, but gains remained "top-heavy." The Mid-Cap 400 and Small-Cap 600 each posted weekly declines.

CMBS: Better Than MBS On One Hand, Worse On The Other

The primary issue is related to the much covered issue that commercial real estate isn't too safe right now, and has further complications on the horizon. Thankfully, at least relative to MBS, negative convexity is less of a problem, and some oblique risks on the heels of the SVB collapse won't kick in. But with the added issue that there are still duration risks given the current economic setup, we think it is still best to stay away from CMBS.
