Recently I've been able to add to my VNQ, WPC and NRO positions. It seems
REITs are no longer darlings. I was able to add 12% to each of those
positions. Effective yields are quite good right now compared to the 20
Year US Treasury rate of 2.88% (which has no inflation protection).

With good current income, secondary benefits of inflation hedging and
rising general interest rates, adding to REIT positions via AIM's suggested
buys seems a very good idea. These buys might be just the first stop on a
long train ride. I have been holding cash for these for so long it seems
almost painful in hindsight. Now, finally I'm getting to deploy some of it
with reasonable hope of income and capital appreciation.

Best regards,
