Banks are tightening lending practices, which has historically been predictive of recessions. Commercial real estate loans are coming due, with many properties being valued below the amount owed, potentially causing issues for banks.

Bank Tightening, Commercial Real Estate And Natural Gas Demand

Interest rate hikes and the trillion and a half dollars of commercial real estate debt have both filled the sector with gloom. This pessimism is not justified when dissecting SPDR's XLRE holdings and looking at metrics like debt and revenue growth, while also not forgetting the tools the Fed has put in place to contain liquidity risks.

Hello! This week's ETF wrap looks at real estate funds with exposure to commercial properties, an area of the market under pressure as investors worry lending is tightening after this month's stress in the banking sector.

Commercial real-estate worries weigh down property ETFs — but a ‘durable' corner holds up relatively well

While so many investors are focusing on the banking system, I'm looking for where the next shoe will drop. I think that next shoe may be in the REIT sector, and XLRE is particularly vulnerable, based on its current holdings.

REIT underperformance over the past 10 years has been the result of multiple contraction while broader market multiples expanded. This leaves REITs relatively cheap.

Mall REITs - which endured a dismal stretch of underperformance from 2015-2020 - enter the critical holiday season on surprisingly stable footing as resilient consumer spending has offset broader macro-headwinds. The momentum from the stimulus-fueled ‘spending spree' appears likely to carry retailers through the holiday season. Store openings continue to outpace store closings in 2022 by the widest-margin in decades.

Pressured by the broader housing cooldown, Apartment REITs have been among the weaker-performing property sectors over the past quarter despite achieving record-setting rent growth throughout the summer. While the era of 20% rent increases on new leases is over, there remains significant “embedded” rent growth in below-market renewals that should power impressive FFO growth into 2023.

Mortgage rates have not been this high since before the housing crisis. And while the housing market is slowing, prices are still high.

High Mortgage Rates And High Inflation

Pressured by the painfully slow “return to the office” with daily utilization rates still 50% below pre-pandemic norms, Office REITs are among the worst-performing property sectors this year. Office leasing activity and REIT earnings results have been surprisingly resilient, but corporations won't pay for half-empty space indefinitely and have been leveraging softening market conditions to extract generous concessions.

Real estate has had a historical role as a 3%–5% diversifier within equity and bond portfolios, but in the changing and challenged markets of 2022, real estate investment trusts (REITs) and the real estate sector broadly have proven to be fairly correlated to equities.

Healthcare REITs have lagged over the past quarter as sharply higher labor costs, a sluggish post-COVID recovery in patient volumes, and the waning of government fiscal support have pressured operators. Hospital operators have been slammed particularly hard as elective surgeries continue to be either delayed or pushed to outpatient facilities, amplifying a broader industry shift towards low-cost healthcare settings.
