I'll start to build up my position in hotel reit FCH at current price.

I'll suggest there are two issues:

1. Is this business or reit sector cyclical? I'll say yes, the hotel business has had ups and downs over the past many, many years. I am guessing that although 9/11 has affected all kinds of travel, the cycle for hotels has neither been repudiated nor irreparably damaged.

2. If we're in a cycle, are we near lows, ie. low for a value stock buyer? I do not know, but at current price, FCH sells well below stated book and pays a reinstated 4% annualized dividend yield. At a price of $14.35/sh, the stock is close to the 11.90 low price reached on 9/21/01. Close enough for me anyway, to start adding.
