		<description><![CDATA[With sustained yet slow improvements in the economy, the U.S. Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) industry outperformed the broader equity market in fiscal 2011. The FTSE NAREIT All Equity REIT Index reported total returns of 8.28% for full year 2011 vs. a 2.11% and (1.80%) for the S&#38;P 500 Index and the NASDAQ Composite, respectively. This was preceded by two solid back-to-back fiscal performances for the industry, as the FTSE NAREIT All Equity REIT Index reported total returns of 27.95% in 2010 and 27.99% in 2009. A combination of factors has helped the listed REIT sector to stand out and gain critical mass over the past 15 to 20 years, the most notable among them being a healthy dividend payout. Total returns of 8.28% for the FTSE NAREIT All Equity ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Programmable Logic Devices (PLD) maker Altera Corporation (ALTR) recently slashed its revenue guidance for the fourth quarter of 2011. Altera now expects revenues in the fourth quarter to decline by 13% to 16% on a sequential basis, compared to the previous guidance of 7% – 11%. The new guidance implies revenues in the range of $438.9 million – $454.6 million, significantly lower than the previous guidance of $465.0 million – $485.9 million. Reasons for Downgrade Altera stated that the revenue outlook has deteriorated across all major vertical markets, including both large and small customers. Only North America is expected to benefit from rising military sales. All other geographies are expected to be weak. Most customers reduced demand due to economic uncertainty, macroeconomic concerns, and lower than planned sales. This is ]]></description>

(PLD), a leading industrial real estate investment trust (REIT), has recently fully leased ‘Prologis Tolleson Distribution Center 1’ – a 302,600 square foot warehouse property in Tolleson, Arizona, to an unnamed retailer for an undisclosed amount. The leased facility was earlier acquired in August 2011 for $9.95 million in an all-cash transaction. The lease-up of the distribution facility within a short span of time highlights the inherent quality of the asset portfolio of Prologis and signifies the strong demand of large blocks of industrial space in the Phoenix sub-market. To capitalize on this opportunity, Prologis presently has approximately 3 million square feet of operating assets in Phoenix, as well as a land pool to accommodate approximately 2.5 million square feet of additional development in the region.

		<description><![CDATA[Fitch Ratings, the global credit rating firm, has recently upgraded the credit rating of First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. (FR), a real estate investment trust (REIT), based on its improved long-term credit profile and strong liquidity. The company is currently rated as “BB”, which is significantly up from its previous “B+” rating and denotes a stable outlook with considerable improvement in its balance sheet. While raising First Industrial’s credit rating, Fitch has considered its high quality asset portfolio, better operating performance of late, strong liquidity, adequate debt service coverage, manageable debt maturity schedule, and its ability to access capital from varied sources. Earlier, Fitch had a negative rating on the company as it was anticipated to fail to comply with its financial covenants. However, First Industrial rallied back strongly from ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We have recently lowered our long-term recommendation on Prologis Inc. (PLD) – the erstwhile AMB Property Corp., from Neutral to Underperform primarily driven by macroeconomic issues that have contributed to a slower pace of recovery of the industrial real estate sector. Prologis, a leading industrial real estate investment trust (REIT), acquires, develops, operates and manages industrial real estate space in North America, Asia and Europe. The majority of the company’s portfolio comprises high throughput distribution (HTD), which provides multiple options for quick movement and the distribution of goods to the customer and serves as a critical element in creating efficiencies in the global supply chain. HTD properties are warehouses or other industrial properties that are located near airports, seaports, and ground transportation facilities, which enable rapid distribution of customers’ products. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Public Storage (PSA), a top real estate investment trust (REIT) operating self-storage facilities, reported fourth quarter 2010 FFO (funds from operations) of $1.33 per share, compared with $1.27 in the year-earlier quarter. Fund from operations, a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs, is obtained after adding depreciation and amortization and other non-cash expenses to net income. Excluding several non-recurring items, FFO for fourth quarter 2010 was $1.45 per share compared with $1.33 in the year-ago quarter. Recurring FFO for fourth quarter 2010 exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 8 cents. For full year 2010, Public Storage reported FFO of $4.72 per share, compared with $5.61 in the previous year. Recurring FFO for fiscal 2010 was $5.22 per share compared with $5.03 in 2009. Fiscal 2010 recurring FFO ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The restaurant industry finally appears well positioned for gradual improvement in the first half of 2011. The industry had been depressed by extremely tough challenges since the end of 2009 from the economic turmoil that resulted in weak labor and tight credit markets, resulting in lower discretionary spending. Riding on the back of a slowly reviving U.S. economy and the consequent rise in comparable-store sales, restaurant operators posted improved results in the recent months. We expect restaurant companies to continue delivering better numbers in the upcoming quarters. Encouraging guidance delivered by most of the companies also indicate a return to positive comps. A recent survey by the National Restaurant Association revealed that the Restaurant Performance Index, measuring the health and outlook for the U.S. restaurant industry, was 99.9 in November, ]]></description>

The industry faced extremely tough challenges through the end of 2009 due to the economic turmoil that resulted in weak labor and tight credit markets, resulting in lower discretionary spending. Riding on the back of a slowly reviving U.S. economy and the consequent rise in comparable-store sales along with a drop in costs, restaurant operators posted improved results in the first half of 2010. We expect the companies to continue delivering better numbers for the remainder of 2010 compared to the year-earlier period. Restaurants have been trying to win back cash-conscious guests who have been reluctant to shell out more disposable income, preferring to dine at home or spend less per meal. Eateries are tweaking ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are changing our long-term recommendation for AMB Property (AMB) to Underperform from Neutral as we anticipate the stock to perform well below the broader market. Fiscal 2010 earnings estimates were reduced by 11 out of 13 analysts covering the stock, while none increased them over the last 30 days. With a decline in commercial real estate fundamentals, demand for AMB&#8217;s services has decreased comparatively. However, AMB&#8217;s second quarter 2010 results were in line with the Zacks Consensus estimate. Our long-term Underperform recommendation on the stock indicates that AMB would perform well below the broader market. Our target price of $24.00 at 19.5X 2010 FFO/Share factors in this view. Over the last five years, AMB s shares have traded in a range of 4.1X to 21.2X trailing 12-month FFO. Zacks ]]></description>

The lessee will occupy the space at ProLogis Park Pharr Bridge Building Eight, which is at close proximity to the Reynosa International Airport.

		<description><![CDATA[AMB Property Corp. (AMB), a leading real estate investment trust (REIT), recently announced plans to offer a new commercial real estate fund in Mexico that aims to attract investment from private pension administrators, locally known as Afores. AMB had sought the permission of the Mexican stock exchange to list a fund and invite the nation&#8217;s 14 private pensions to place part of their $85 billion in combined assets. The pension funds of Mexico have been recently deregulated to allow the Afores to invest broadly in private equity. Besides providing a capital injection to roads, ports and other big infrastructure projects, the deregulation also enables Afores to be more flexible to better manage stock and debt holdings during times of high volatility. AMB is a leading industrial real estate company, with ]]></description>

Operating as a real estate closed-ended investment fund, PEPR is externally managed by a subsidiary of ProLogis. Management firmly believed that current PEPR unit prices were relatively low and did not reflect its true potential, thereby making it an attractive investment opportunity. Consequently, the company purchased additional Ordinary Units carrying voting rights of PEPR to increase its ownership to 30.2% or 57.6 million of PEPR’s Ordinary Units.

		<description><![CDATA[Public Storage (PSA), a real estate investment trust (REIT) operating self-storage facilities, reported a decline in total revenues for fourth quarter 2009 to $402.9 million, compared to $416.8 million in the year-earlier quarter. For full year 2009, total revenues were $1.6 billion compared to $1.7 billion in the previous year. The year-over-year decrease in revenue was primarily due to a reduction in realized rent per square foot. During the quarter, FFO (fund from operations) was $1.27 per share compared to $1.48 in the year-earlier quarter. Fund from operations, a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs, is obtained after adding depreciation and amortization and other non-cash expenses to net income. The year-over-year decrease in FFO was largely due to foreign currency exchange loss. Excluding the one-time items, FFO ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Public Storage (PSA), a real estate investment trust (REIT) operating self-storage facilities, reported a decline in total revenues for the third quarter to $412.9 million, compared to $431.2 million in the year-earlier quarter. The year over year decrease in revenue was primarily due to the continued challenges in the macroeconomic environment. During the quarter, FFO (fund from operations) was $1.44 per share, compared to $1.08 in the year-earlier quarter. Fund from operations, a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs, is obtained after adding depreciation and amortization and other non-cash expenses to net income. The year over year increase in FFO was largely due to foreign currency exchange gain.
