Book Synopsis Pricing of Volatility Risk in REITs by : Jared DeLisle
Download or read book Pricing of Volatility Risk in REITs written by Jared DeLisle and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the pricing of volatility risk in the cross-section of equity real estate investment trust (REIT) stock returns over the 1996 to 2010 period. We consider both aggregate (systematic) volatility and firm-specific (idiosyncratic) volatility. In contrast to the negative and significant price of systematic volatility risk for non-REIT equities, we find that systematic volatility is not priced in REIT returns. Idiosyncratic volatility, estimated using the Fama and French (1993) three-factor model, is negatively priced in the cross-section and is largely independent of non-REIT idiosyncratic volatility. Within the total volatility risk profile, idiosyncratic volatility dominates aggregate volatility in REIT pricing.
Book Synopsis Idiosyncratic Risk and Reit Returns by : Joseph T. L. Ooi
Download or read book Idiosyncratic Risk and Reit Returns written by Joseph T. L. Ooi and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volatility of a stock returns can be decomposed into market and firm-specific volatility, with the former commonly known as systematic risk and the later as idiosyncratic risk. This study examines the relevance of idiosyncratic risk in explaining the monthly cross-sectional returns of REIT stocks. Contrary to the CAPM theory, a significant positive relationship is found between idiosyncratic volatility and the cross-sectional returns. This suggests that firm-specific risk matters in REIT pricing. The regression results further show that once idiosycratic risk is controlled for in the asset-pricing model, the size and book-to-market equity ratio factors ceased to be significant. The explanatory power of the momentum effect remains robust in the presence of idiosyncratic risk.
Book Synopsis Asset Prices and Monetary Policy by : John Y. Campbell
Download or read book Asset Prices and Monetary Policy written by John Y. Campbell and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-11-15 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic growth, low inflation, and financial stability are among the most important goals of policy makers, and central banks such as the Federal Reserve are key institutions for achieving these goals. In Asset Prices and Monetary Policy, leading scholars and practitioners probe the interaction of central banks, asset markets, and the general economy to forge a new understanding of the challenges facing policy makers as they manage an increasingly complex economic system. The contributors examine how central bankers determine their policy prescriptions with reference to the fluctuating housing market, the balance of debt and credit, changing beliefs of investors, the level of commodity prices, and other factors. At a time when the public has never been more involved in stocks, retirement funds, and real estate investment, this insightful book will be useful to all those concerned with the current state of the economy.
Book Synopsis Evaluating Stock Price Volatility by : Jarl G. Kallberg
Download or read book Evaluating Stock Price Volatility written by Jarl G. Kallberg and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most controversial topics in modern financial economics is 'excess volatility': the notion that stock prices move too much to be explained by fundamental economic and firm-specific factors. This research measures the extent of excess volatility in a special class of equities: real estate investment trusts (RIETs). The structure of REITs, specifically, the constraints on dividend payout, the passive approach to asset management and the detailed data available on REIT composition, make them ideal for this investigation. The tests are conducted using the Shiller-West variance bounds methodology and by estimating the volatility of the underlying assets. We find that despite the absence of dividend smoothing behavior, REITs exhibit approximately the same level of excess volatility as determined in Shiller's work. This finding of excess volatility is confirmed in the second part of our analysis and suggests that dividend smoothing cannot explain excess volatility. Furthermore, it suggests that prices of securitized real estate vehicles like REITs follow a stochastic process that is very different from the process driving the underlying real assets.
Book Synopsis Stock Price Dynamics of US REITs by : Nick Martin Trefz
Download or read book Stock Price Dynamics of US REITs written by Nick Martin Trefz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By adopting the ‘REIT laboratory’ and incorporating REIT-specific Fama-French factors, Nick Martin Trefz builds the foundation to appropriately isolate the parameters of interest and to transparently investigate the areas of interest (Short Selling, Covid-19, and ESG) throughout the chapters in this book. He finds that short selling activity measured by short interest correlates with positive excess returns, and that low short interest portfolios have positive and statistically significant alphas. He further identifies that during the Covid-19 pandemic the sources of spillovers among US real estate sectors remain constant compared to before Covid-19. Lodging can be identified as a source of total return as well as tail risk, and Office can be considered a source of volatility. Lastly, he shows that ESG ratings do not affect returns during Covid-19. However, higher ESG ranked REITs show significantly lower volatility during Covid-19.

Book Synopsis Low Volatility Investing in U.S. Equity REITs by : Jon Spinney
Download or read book Low Volatility Investing in U.S. Equity REITs written by Jon Spinney and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the market for U.S. equity real estate investment trusts (REITs) for evidence of the volatility effect, in which low volatility stocks tend to outperform high volatility ones, as has been found in the general equity market by prior research. While there is some evidence of a volatility effect in the first ten years of the sample, this disappears in a more recent time period. Furthermore, we test the efficacy of low risk portfolio construction techniques and find that none perform any better than a market cap weighted portfolio - although they are also no worse - over any of the time periods examined. Thus, there is no evidence that using a risk-based portfolio design that emphasizes low volatility would improve portfolio performance for a REIT allocation.

In this book, you will learn about publicly and privately held REITs, Net Asset Value (NAV), Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO), Cash Available for Distribution (CAD), the benefits associated with REITS, dividend reinvestment programs (DRiPs), capitalization rate, equitization, leverage, positive spread investing, securitization, and straight-lining. You will also learn about equity, mortgage, and hybrid REITs and the more specific types, including residential, office, industrial, and retail. The Complete Guide to Investing in REITs will walk you through finding the appropriate REIT for you. This book will also teach you how to manage your REIT, how to limit your personal risk, how to understand REIT performance, and how to analyze REITs. By reading this book, you will know and understand the pitfalls of investing in REITs, you will know how REITs behave as an investment class and how to best integrate them into your portfolio, and you will know what economic issues affect real estate and the effects these have on REITs.

Book Synopsis Are We Overestimating REIT Idiosyncratic Risk? Analysis of Pricing Effects and Persistence by : Benjamin A. Abugri
Download or read book Are We Overestimating REIT Idiosyncratic Risk? Analysis of Pricing Effects and Persistence written by Benjamin A. Abugri and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study uses a multifactor REIT-specific model to estimate and compare REIT idiosyncratic volatility vis-à-vis the same from the Fama-French three-factor model. Estimates of conditional idiosyncratic volatility and conditional betas obtained from a multifactor REIT-returns model and a bivariate EGARCH model respectively are found to be positively and significantly related with REIT returns. Consistent with Merton (1987)'s predictions, we observe that larger REITs post higher average returns when idiosyncratic risk is introduced in cross-sectional regressions. Persistence of past market-risk does not appear to be short-lived and seems to have a lasting impact on future idiosyncratic volatility. We also observe mild evidence of persistence of past idiosyncratic risk, albeit short-lived, thereby suggesting that past idiosyncratic risk has a short-term impact on future idiosyncratic risk.
Book Synopsis The Reits (Real Estate Investment Trusts) by : Kim Hin David Ho
Download or read book The Reits (Real Estate Investment Trusts) written by Kim Hin David Ho and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2021-11-26 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapter 1 examines the significance of ‘green’ buildings on the operational and financial performance of REITs. The Chapter covers different direct real estate sectors, namely office, retail and residential, for the REITS concerned to evaluate the consistency of the results. Chapter 2 looks at the risk neutral and non-risk neutral pricing of real estate investment trusts in Singapore (S-REITs), via comparing the average of the individual ratios (of deviation between expected and observed closing price/observed closing price), with the ratio (of standard deviation/mean) for closing prices, via the binomial options pricing tree model. Chapter3 highlights that while the Markowitz portfolio theory (MPT) is popular in modern finance to model portfolios with maximum total returns (TRs) for a given systematic risk, the more flexible multivariate copula model is introduced that enables investors and portfolio managers to obtain the optimal portfolio. Chapter 4 looks at a value investing framework, in which a REIT and real estate comany investment operation is deemed to be one, where a “thorough analysis”, should promise the safety of a principal and an adequate total return. Chapter 5 examines the market reactions of Malaysia’s listed property trusts and property common stocks to corporate restructuring activities – direct real estate asset acquisitions and new listings. Chapter 6 reports the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) consultations with the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) and the Ministry of Finance (MOF), to introduce the Income Tax Act (ITA) amendments, and a new temporary relief measure for real estate investment trusts (REITs) in Singapore. The Chapter also looks at the proposal by the Asian Public Real Estate Association (APREA) to the MAS, to create a private REIT structure Chapter 7 looks at the key issues and notes on the valuation of the public real estate investment trusts (REITs) and the real estate companies, adopting several valuation metrics to value REITs on a stand-alone and a relative basis. Chapter 8 looks at the unique Asian REIT institutional environment, pertaining to the S-REIT, while cross referencing it to that of the CapitaMall Trust (S-CMT) and the Hong Kong HK- Link REIT. Chapter 9 summarises the book’s findings and highlights the contributions and recommendations made.
Book Synopsis Myths and Facts About the Alleged Over-Pricing of U.S. Real Estate by : Francesco Ravazzolo
Download or read book Myths and Facts About the Alleged Over-Pricing of U.S. Real Estate written by Francesco Ravazzolo and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper uses a multi-factor pricing model with time-varying risk exposures and premia to examine whether the 2003-2006 period has been characterized, as often claimed by a number of commentators and policymakers, by a substantial mispricing of publicly traded real estate assets (REITs). The estimation approach relies on Bayesian methods to model the latent process followed by risk exposures and idiosynchratic volatility. Our application to monthly, 1979-2009 U.S. data for stock, bond and REIT returns shows that both market and real consumption growth risks are priced throughout the sample by the cross-section of asset returns. There is weak evidence at best of structural mispricing of REIT valuations during the 2003-2006 sample.
Book Synopsis Volatility Persistence in Equity REIT Market by : Tien Foo Sing
Download or read book Volatility Persistence in Equity REIT Market written by Tien Foo Sing and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extreme shocks if occur will have significant and permanent impact on the risk premiums of the stock markets. Modeling these events in a conditional variance framework assuming that the stock market will mean-revert in a short time could produce spurious results. Using the Markov-switching autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (MS-GARCH) model to filter out the high volatility states from the low and medium volatility states, we found that the volatility persistence (ldquo;large newsrdquo;) increases the returns of the equity real estate investment trust (EREIT). However, when the volatility persistence is interacted with negative shocks, it cause the EREIT returns to decline. The negative volatility persistence effects fit the story of inter-temporal asset substitution, which explain why risk-averse REIT investors substitute risky REIT assets by risk-less assets in periods of prolong negative shocks.

This book was released on 2014-02-15 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A decade has passed since the launch of Singapore’s first REIT, Capita Mall trust in July 2002. Despite that, REITs are not as popular as they deserve to be and continue to be plagued with misperceptions. Singapore REITs are one of the few businesses that offer a direct play on the domestic economy and have proven their resilience through market cycles. This book takes a deep and fundamental look at this asset class and explains why every investor should take a serious look at REITs. Building Wealth Through REITs simplifies REIT investing without sacrificing depth of knowledge. It discusses common perceptions about REITs and why many of them don’t hold up to scrutiny. The book contains in-depth interviews with CEOs of major S-REITs that will stimulate your thinking and further your knowledge of various REITs. The book targeted at both novice and sophisticated investors will help you master the fundamentals of REITs and deepen your understanding of this asset class. It provides practical guidance on building a strong and high performing REIT portfolio, one that can set you on the path to financial freedom much earlier than you thought possible. About the Author Bobby Jayaraman has been investing in REITs for close to a decade and has published several articles on REITs in the Singapore media. He is the owner of Frunze Investments, an investment management firm. Prior to starting his own company, he was with Standard Chartered Bank and McKinsey & Company. He holds an MBA from INSEAD
Book Synopsis Spillover Risks in REITs and Other Asset Markets by : Ming-Chu Chiang
Download or read book Spillover Risks in REITs and Other Asset Markets written by Ming-Chu Chiang and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on Diehold and Yilmaz's (2012) methodology, we estimate three return spillover indices in a four-asset system comprising equity REIT (EREIT), mortgage REIT (MREIT), stock, and bond for the sample period from January 1972 to September 2014. We find that the total return spillover risks account for about one-third of the total return variance, on average, in the four-asset system. When we add commercial real estate (CRE) to the system, but for a shorter sample period from February 1998 to September 2014, we estimate an average total return spillover risk of 28.0%. In an extended Fama-French's five-factor CAPM framework, we find that the net return spillover risks have significant and negative effects on EREIT and MREIT returns, but positive effects on bond return. We infer that during the period of high oil price volatility from 1978 to 1986, bond market, as a net "receiver" of market risks, increased its risk premiums in response to high spillover risks from other market. However, in the post-subprime crisis period, large spillover risks from the stock market, which is a net "transmitter" of risks, decreased EREIT and MREIT returns. We also find that CRE return is not affected by spillover risks from other markets. Institutional investors should thus not neglect spillover risks when constructing asset allocation strategies that include assets other than CRE.
Book Synopsis Volatilities and Momentum Returns in Real Estate Investment Trusts by : Kathy Hung
Download or read book Volatilities and Momentum Returns in Real Estate Investment Trusts written by Kathy Hung and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research studies momentum returns in REITs by investigating the cross-sectional relationship between different types of volatilities and asset returns of REITs. We examine asymmetric risk effect in momentum returns with a GARCH-in-mean model and examine the effects of idiosyncratic volatility and aggregate market volatility on asset returns. There are four key findings. First, momentum returns display asymmetric volatility. Momentum returns in REITs are higher when volatility is higher. Second, REITs with lowest past returns (losers) have higher idiosyncratic risks than those with highest past returns (winners). The difference between losers' and winners' idiosyncratic risks is significant and can partially explain momentum returns. Third, investors require a lower risk premium for holding losers' idiosyncratic risks, but require a higher risk premium for holding winner's idiosyncratic risks. Four, there is a positive relation between asset returns and aggregate market volatility, with the magnitude of the relationship is larger for losers than for winners.
