What happened
The Federal Reserve increased interest rates for the first time in three years, a move driven by persistently elevated inflation. This action coincided with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield rising over 5%, its highest level since 2007. For REITs, this rise in rates increases borrowing costs, making it more expensive to refinance existing debt and issue new funding.
Why it matters
The higher interest rates affect the market by making lower-risk income investments, such as government bonds and bank CDs, more appealing to investors. Consequently, the value of higher-risk investments, such as REITs, tends to fall, causing their dividend yields to rise sharply.
