"Chilton capitalized on April's tariff-driven volatility to optimize portfolio weights, overweighting secularly strong and defensive REIT subsectors to deliver a +2.73% YTD gross return, significantly outperforming the RMZ index's -0.1% YTD decline."
In Q2 2025, the S&P 500 recovered from an April tariff-induced selloff to close up 10.9% for the quarter (+6.2% YTD). Chilton reviews 'American Exceptionalism' and companies' agility in relocating supply chains to avoid tariffs. Chilton analyzes the potential impact of a trade war on REIT sectors, positioning their portfolio defensively by maintaining underweights in lodging, regional malls, and industrial properties while maintaining overweights in cell towers, data centers, single-family rentals, and healthcare. Chilton took advantage of April's market weakness to build back office exposures (HIW, BXP) to model weights. The Chilton REIT Strategy achieved +2.73% YTD gross (+2.45% net) as of June 30, 2025, outperforming the benchmark MSCI US REIT Index's (RMZ) YTD total return of -0.1%.
