Stocks at 52-Week Lows: Real Estate

Real Estate stocks have crumbled under the weight of rising yields. The Australian Government 10-year yield is up 52 bps since mid-October and its only gathered more momentum after:

  • Australian inflation came in hotter-than-expected last week, up 5.4% year-on-year in the September quarter vs. the 5.3% expected. The monthly inflation indicator was up 5.6% for September vs. the 5.4% expected

  • RBA Governor Bullock said in the lead up to the CPI print: "The Board will not hesitate to raise the cash rate further if there is a material upward revision to the outlook for inflation."

According to JPMorgan, the correlation between the 10-year bond yield and Charter Hall Group price-to-earnings is -0.75. "One might have to wait for the long end of the rate curve to ease before the stock bounces back in a sustainable manner," the analysts said in a note last month.
