Two Harbors Investment, New York Mortgage Trust, Hersha Hospitality Trust, RLJ Lodging Trust, and Capstead Mortgage Early Briefing and Review
LONDON, April 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
The housing market is continuing to see a strong recovery in 2013. The improvement in the housing market is being driven by record low mortgage rates, and huge pent up demand. The recovery is benefiting residential REITs such as Two Harbors Investment Corp. (NYSE: TWO), and New York Mortgage Trust Inc. (NASDAQ: NYMT). Meanwhile, economic activity in the U.S. has been picking up pace since the start of this year. This augurs well for REITs such as Hersha Hospitality Trust (NYSE: HT), and RLJ Lodging Trust (NYSE: RLJ), which focus on hotels and motels. For Capstead Mortgage Corp. (NYSE: CMO), which focuses on mortgages, record low mortgage rates pose a significant challenge. REITs ended mostly lower on Tuesday even as the broad market edged higher on the back of some robust economic data from China.
