The 2023 list, Fortune's ninth, showcases 59 companies selected by reporters and editors from a short list of nearly 250. A dozen from the 59 were chosen by the author at random for this post.

REITs Have Room to Rebound

By Jack Hough, in Barron's.

Oct 06, 2023

Rising rates have roughed up real estate investment trusts, or REITs. An MSCI index of U.S. ones has fallen 7% this year, not counting dividends, versus an 11% rise for the S&P 500 (SP500). Is it time to sound the rally horn or the caution kazoo?

Maybe both. Investment bank Wedbush says the group looks cheap and poised to shine next year and beyond, despite risks.

The Dividend Dogs Rule

Stocks earned the "dog" moniker by exhibiting three traits: (1) paying reliable, repeating dividends, (2) their prices fell to where (3) yield (dividend/price) grew higher than their peers. Thus, the highest yielding stocks in any collection became known as "dogs." More precisely, these are, in fact, best called, "underdogs."

The net gain/loss estimates above did not factor in any foreign or domestic tax problems resulting from distributions. Consult your tax advisor regarding the source and consequences of "dividends" from any investment.
