iShares Select U.S. REIT ETF vs. iShares Global REIT ETF: Which Could Deliver More Passive Income For Long-Term Investors?
The article compares two REIT ETFs: iShares Select U.S. REIT ETF (ICF), which concentrates on 30 large U.S. real estate companies, and iShares Global REIT ETF (REET), which diversifies across 317 global real estate stocks. While ICF has outperformed historically, REET is recommended as the better long-term buy due to its higher dividend yield (3.6% vs 2.7%), lower expense ratio (0.14% vs 0.32%), and broader diversification while maintaining substantial U.S. exposure.
