As the primary source of income for the REIT-Retail sector comes from charging rental fees on their retail space, the companies within the industry are inextricably linked to the health of retail sales. Up until recently, most Retail REIT's had been struggling from vacancy and soft rent issues that developed in the wake of decreased discretionary spending by consumers. However, recent second quarter reports show that occupancy and tenant net operating incomes have been trending upward toward pre-recession levels. With average rents increasing also, the fundamentals within the sector seem to be showing signs of recovery.

However, there is still great cause for concern as recent studies show consumer confidence reached an eight month low on August 13th. With job uncertainty still a major concern in light of the 9.5% U.S. unemployment rate, the recent recovery of the REIT-Retail sector could in fact be an anomaly. Visit www.stockcall.com/ to see how companies in this industry have grown over the past years and how they are expected to perform in the future.

Another potential issue for the industry is Wal-Mart's expansion into the grocery business. With grocery stores being the primary traffic anchors for many retail-developments, Wal-Mart's growing grocery business could draw retail traffic away from many already-struggling shopping centers. While two companies in this sector have Wal-Mart as a tenant, Wal-Mart owns the vast majority of its own stores meaning the REIT-Retail sector could see a significantly negative impact if Wal-Mart's expansion proves successful.
