I have been buying a number of Reits and Utilities over the past week or so. I see extremely nice yields and very promising upwardly sloping chart patterns. The Utility and Reit sectors went through severe corrections and in some specific cases bear markets and have rebounded nicely. Many of them are now trading above their 50 DAY EMA and are in well defined uptrends. I would not buy the ETFs, VNQ and XLU, as there is some crap inside those ETFs. Here are a few charts:

Who knows, maybe they break down again? But these sectors tend to lead, not lag. They are good portfolio diversifiers. They won't surge on a day like this. But they won't tank on big down days either and sometimes they will surprise you on the upside while most stocks are falling fast. They are true tortoises. I've got a few sporting yields of anywhere from 9%-12% with PEs of 5-7. They discounted armageddon on the interest rate front in February. Some of them like WPC have been raising dividends for 40 straight years.

They are not as exciting as NFLX, AAPl or FB. But they pay out big 4 times a year. Owning them is all a mindset.
