Vanguard REIT ETF (VNQ)

CAPS Rating:
***

Closed end fund.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

I've been looking to get into REITS, I decided on this one. Nice dividend, very low fees and although the real estate market is down now, it won't stay this way forever. Besides, as a teacher in southern CA, this may be the only avenue I have to own property.

REITs still have a lot more to give back as commercial real estate starts to fail.

The real estate crisis will not go on forever. This one will be a star once the mood shifts.

This ETF has cured my addiction to REIT's. I'm buying into it until the real estate market starts turning back up.

Real Estate is down. Will it stay at the bottom for 1 month, 1-year, 2 years... I don't know. With a long perspective now is a good time to start thinking about buying.

I hate to be someone who calls the bottom, but im feeling that the housing markets and... well... at the bottom, and this is the wreckage thats "left behind"... only 2 of the top 10 are residential, and they are apartments, for the people that lost there homes...

I think i actually gonna do more than speculate on this one, and buy this to diversify my portfolio a little bit...

"I think for the short run, year or so its gonna match the market."

famous last words, fingers crossed.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
