With volatility starting to return to the markets and some analysts pointing to the fact that things are beginning to look a bit top heavy, investors may want to dial back their risk profiles and focus on more boring investments. And nothing can be as boring as watching trees grow. Timber as an asset class has managed to produce stellar long-term returns … all while laughing in the face of volatility. Add in the fact that many timber companies are structured as high-dividend-paying real estate investment trusts (REITs) and you have a recipe for success in the months and years ahead.
Many of the major timber REITs have recently begun spinning off or selling their non-timberland and wood products assets. Those moves have made the REITs purely focused on the operation of managing timberlands. They’ve basically become a poor man’s TMO — accessible by buying a single share of stock. Let’s take a look at three of the best timber REITs to buy: Rayonier (RYN), Weyerhaeuser (WY) and Potlatch (PCH).
