INDS ETF

Pacer Benchmark Industrial Real Estate SCTR ETF focuses on commercial REITs in the industrial sector. Commercial REITs seem to carry a stigma lately because of office REITs, but some sub-sectors are actually thriving. Industrial REITs have seen growth due to online shopping trends, benefiting from logistics assets close to major highways and ports.

Pacer Benchmark Industrial Real Estate SCTR ETF invests in industrial REITs, which have seen strong growth due to e-commerce demand. People have been avoiding commercial REITs, but not all are same. There are high quality commercial REITs in sectors other than office buildings. Industrial REITs include various types of real estate assets such as warehouses, fulfillment centers, and logistics infrastructure in strategically valuable locations.

Due to a surge in e-commerce, strong supply & demand dynamics for logistics assets should mean the Industrial real estate investment trust sector will be a long-term outperformer. As the only exchange-traded fund investing in industrial REITs, specifically in self-storage REITs, INDS thus becomes a lucrative option for long-term growth-seeking investors. INDS generates decent total returns, and performance of its overall portfolio can be termed quite satisfactory. The fund is currently trading almost at par.
