What does REIT stand for? It means Real Estate Investment Trust and is a entity designed to serve the interests of a group of real estate investors.
In an earlier article, I wrote about the iShares FTSE NAREIT Mortgage Fund ETF (NYSEARCA: REM) as a good way to generate income in an environment where interest rates are low, and yields on investment grade bonds are quite possibly at long-time lows.hile I initially thought that an ETF would be a more attractive investment because of the diversification, I found that the performance of REM significantly lagged the performance of both AGNC and NLY over all periods analyzed.
