Cell Tower REITs have been one of the primary 'growth engines' of the REIT sector, but are poised to snap their six-year streak of outperformance over the REIT Index this year.

Farewell - or perhaps good riddance - to the Prison REIT sector. GEO Group announced last week that it's joining CoreCivic in abandoning the REIT structure, concluding a tumultuous 8-year run as REITs.
