Media companies are bringing in key figures to help with viewership on the night of the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election"> 2024 presidential election.</a>
Two key figures from a hush money trial against former President Donald Trump will be featured in coverage on election night.
What Happened: Stormy Daniels and Michael Cohen are among the key election night featured guests lined up for a media partnership between U.K. broadcaster Channel 4 and U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cnn">media company CNN</a>, which is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>).
Due to the significance of the 2024 U.S. presidential election and worldwide interest, Channel 4 is devoting eight hours of live programming to the event and utilizing a pact with CNN to help with a lineup of guests.
Channel 4's live programming is set to be hosted by Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Emily Maitlis from Washington D.C., according to a <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/election-2024-cnn-brian-cox-channel-4-1236026602/">report </a>from The Hollywood Reporter.
To help with its "groundbreaking" coverage of the U.S. presidential election, Channel 4 will feature guest stars that include Daniels, Cohen, Caitlyn Jenner, Boris Johnson and Brian Cox.
Channel 4's special is tentatively titled "America Decides: U.S. Election Results." It will air from 10:15 p.m. UK time until early morning.

</ul>
Why It's Important: This marks Channel 4's first overnight coverage of the U.S. election in 32 years, according to the report.
While Channel 4 is publicly owned and relies on advertising, the partnership and guest lineups could put CNN on the radar as seeing potential viewership strength in its U.S. coverage.
"Channel 4's first-ever partnership with CNN will enable the sharing of guests, reporters, graphics and data across the night," Channel 4 said.
While CNN has not announced its full line-up of election night guests, it's quite possible that Daniels, Cohen and other named parties above will be part of it. The sharing of guests between CNN and Channel 4 could help both media companies throughout the day of coverage. CNN will be one of many U.S. companies covering the election outcomes live. 
With their past connections to Trump, Daniels and Cohen could offer a deeper insight into the personal implications for the former president, whether he wins or loses the election.
Both Daniels and Cohen testified against the former president in the hush money trial, where he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/05/39100065/trump-found-guilty-on-all-34-counts-in-hush-money-criminal-trial-heres-what-happens-next">was found guilty</a> on 34 counts of falsifying business records.

Source: <a href="https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2024/10/04/shallow-high-grade-uranium-mineralization-expands-at-co-s-project.html?utm_medium=feed">Streetwise Reports 10/04/2024</a>
Baselode Energy Corp. (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bsenf#OTC">BSENF</a>) has reported positive uranium assay results from three drill holes of the 2024 drill program at its Ackio prospect, located in the Athabasca Basin, Northern Saskatchewan. These results highlight the shallow depth and high-grade mineralization that continue to characterize the Ackio prospect.
Notably, drill hole AK24-119 intersected 0.28% U3O8 over 21.0 meters, including a high-grade section of 1.55% U3O8 over 1.5 meters at a depth of 141 meters. While drill hole AK24-118 returned 0.59% U3O8 over 8.5 meters, including 1.25% U3O8 over 1.5 meters at a depth of 153 meters.
CEO James Sykes commented in the press release, &quot;These results strengthen our confidence in Ackio. It&#39;s remarkable that, just over three years after discovering Ackio, we&#39;re still achieving better-than-expected grades and widths.&quot;
Baselode expects further assay results from the remaining 40 drill holes to be released after quality review and approval.
<h2>Looking At The Uranium Sector</h2>
The uranium market has experienced notable growth in recent years. As Kitco wrote on September 25, &quot;Despite recent market corrections, uranium and uranium-related equities have outperformed other asset classes over the long term&quot; with the U3O8 uranium spot price seeing significant rises in the last five years. The long-term fundamentals of the market remained strong, with Kitco noting that &quot;global uranium supply lagging behind demand&quot; could lead to higher prices as utilities are &quot;forced to secure long-term contracts.&quot;
<blockquote class="callOut left">Jeff Clark of The Gold Advisor expressed enthusiasm for the company in an October 3 update, stating that the results from the drill program were better than expected, with high-grade uranium intersected in two keyholes.</blockquote>
Chris Temple of The National Investor similarly commented on September 25, &quot;Uranium and nuclear power are clearly back, with long-term demand increasing, driven by significant developments like the restart of nuclear facilities.&quot;
He observed that the sector appeared to be moving past its consolidation phase. He advised, &quot;Now is the time to rebuild exposure to uranium and nuclear power.&quot;
The Financial Times, also writing on September 25, highlighted the impact of the ongoing geopolitical climate on uranium pricing, stating that &quot;the conversion and enrichment prices are reflecting a much bigger supply squeeze due to the Russia-Ukraine war and other factors.&quot; They also pointed to the increasing prices for nuclear fuel, suggesting that &quot;higher nuclear fuel prices are likely to continue as existing conversion facilities face delays.&quot;
<h2>Baselode&#39;s Catalysts</h2>
The Ackio prospect remains a strong catalyst for Baselode Energy&#39;s growth, as the shallow and high-grade uranium mineralization continues to yield favorable results. Baselode&#39;s exploration strategy focuses on near-surface, basement-hosted uranium, which offers the potential for low-cost extraction.
As highlighted in the company&#39;s investor presentation, the Ackio discovery includes nine uranium pods, with mineralization starting as shallow as 25 meters below the surface. The ongoing drilling campaign, which has completed over 30,000 meters since 2021, further enhances the company&#39;s resource potential. With over US$20 million in the treasury, Baselode is well-funded to continue advancing Ackio and other projects, including the Catharsis project currently in drilling.
<h2>What Third-Party Experts Are Saying</h2>
David Talbot, Managing Director at Red Cloud Securities, noted in a September 17 report that drilling at Ackio has &quot;continued to expand the mineralized footprint at Pods 1, 6, and 7&quot; highlighting that &quot;thirteen holes reported composite intervals of anomalous radioactivity between 11m and 42m in thickness.&quot;
In his report, Talbot rated the stock as a Buy and further projected the potential for &quot;8-10-12 million pounds of U3O8 at a grade of ~0.3% U3O8&quot; which aligns with typical grades found in the southeastern part of the Athabasca Basin.
Additionally, Jeff Clark of The Gold Advisor expressed enthusiasm for the company in an October 3 update, stating that the results from the drill program were better than expected, with high-grade uranium intersected in two keyholes. Clark observed that &quot;the stock popped on the news, on heavy volume, investors obviously liking the results.&quot;
He also pointed out that Baselode&#39;s shallow mineralization at Ackio could make future mining operations more economically viable, noting the project&#39;s competitive advantage compared to deeper deposits elsewhere in the Athabasca Basin.
<h2>Ownership and Share Structure</h2>
According to Refinitiv, Baselode has institutions holding 23.26% with Alps Advisors holding the bulk of it with 17.94%, followed by Vident Investment Advisory LLC at 2.97%. Management and Insiders hold 1.59%. The rest is retail.
The company has a market cap of US$12.63 million, according to Market Watch, with 131.51 free float shares. It trades in the 52-week range between US$0.0778 and US$0.4491.

AstraZeneca (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/azn#NASDAQ">AZN</a>) announced that it has signed an exclusive license agreement with China-based CSPC Pharmaceutical Group Ltd for developing an early-stage, small molecule Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) disruptor for helping patients with dyslipidaemia.
The latest agreement is likely to strengthen AstraZeneca&#39;s cardiovascular pipeline, which is being studied for treating various cardiovascular diseases.
Year to date, shares of AstraZeneca have rallied 14.1% compared with the industry&#39;s rise of 18.5%.

<h2>More on AZN&#39;s Latest Agreement</h2>
Per the deal, AZN will make an upfront payment of $100 million to CSPC. The company is also entitled to pay up to $1.92 billion for further development and commercialization milestones plus tiered royalties to CSPC.
Per the latest agreement with CSPC, AstraZeneca will gain access to the latter&#39;s pre-clinical candidate, YS2302018, an oral Lp(a) disruptor, and develop the same for various cardiovascular diseases. The company will develop YS2302018 alone or in combination studies, including with the oral small molecule PCSK9 inhibitor, AZD0780.
Discovered by CSPC, YS2302018 has been shown to effectively prevent the formation of Lp(a), a form of low-density lipoprotein&nbsp;that plays a key role in transporting cholesterol in the bloodstream.
Per the company, the addition of YS2302018 to AZN&#39;s cardiovascular pipeline might help patients to more effectively manage their dyslipidaemia and cardiometabolic diseases.
<h2>AZN&#39;s Airsupra Meet Goal in BATURA Study</h2>
In a separate press release, AstraZeneca announced positive data from the phase IIIb BATURA study, which evaluated its pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI), Airsupra (albuterol/budesonide).
Data from the study showed that treatment with Airsupra led to a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in the risk of a severe exacerbation when used as an as-needed rescue medication in response to symptoms versus as-needed albuterol in patients with intermittent or mild persistent asthma. This was the primary endpoint of the BATURA study.
Airsupra is approved for as-needed treatment or prevention of bronchoconstriction and to reduce the risk of exacerbations in people with asthma aged 18 years and above in the United States. It is the first and only anti-inflammatory rescue medication for the given condition.

Analyst ratings serve as essential indicators of stock performance, provided by experts in banking and financial systems. These specialists diligently analyze company financial statements, participate in conference calls, and engage with insiders to generate quarterly ratings for individual stocks.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

The Latest Analyst Ratings For Rocket Companies

Investors may be worried about the future of the computer and technology sector, especially now that the former darling in the space, NVIDIA Co., is threatening to go into a correction in potentially the coming months. However, recent economic data suggests that there are other names in the space that are still worth taking another look into.
These stocks share the same characteristics that the manufacturing PMI index reported in its latest issue, so the odds are in favor of bulls in MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mstr#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), SAP (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sap#NYSE">SAP</a>), and even PTC Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ptc#NASDAQ">PTC</a>). These names would expose investors to the potential bull runs that could be seen in the cryptocurrency space as interest rate cuts work their way through Bitcoin and give it a run higher.
More than that, finance is now relying on software applications and increased technology implementation in daily operations, and this portfolio aligns investors with that rising demand trend as well. Not to mention the artificial intelligence capabilities needed in the product development and visualization space. Here are some of the fundamental and technical factors that place the odds in favor of these companies this cycle.
<h2>Key Fundamental Drivers Fueling the Computer Software Industry</h2>
The main drivers in the manufacturing PMI index are new orders, production, and inventories. Both new orders and output moved significantly over the last report, with inventories contracting aggressively, which signals upcoming demand across the sector.
But not all industries are made equal. The computer and electronics industries share the same dynamics, meaning investors can expect to see added and accelerating demand in the space. Even then, not all stocks are made equal, so ideally, those with premium forward P/E valuations and above-average earnings per share (EPS) growth will make for better candidates.
<h2>Long Candidate #1: MicroStrategy&#39;s Bitcoin</h2>
The last time the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cut interest rates, the price of Bitcoin more than doubled. This time, history could repeat itself, which is why MicroStrategy is increasing its balance sheet Bitcoin holdings so that the stock&#39;s book value will rise with it.
Even though the stock trades at 82% of its 52-week high, Wall Street analysts still believe it could reach a new high before the year ends. Benchmark leads the way with a price target set at $215 a share for MicroStrategy stock, which calls for a net upside of 30% from where the stock trades today.
Moreover, bearish traders have been forced to cover their short positions over the past quarter. MicroStrategy&#39;s short interest fell from $5.3 billion last quarter to $3.6 billion today, with a 2.9% contraction in the past month alone. Replacing these bears were some institutional buyers that were added recently.
Leading the buying were those at Park Avenue Securities, boosting their holdings by over 1,000% as of October 2024, bringing their net investment to $1.2 million today.
<h2>Long Candidate #2: Banks Need SAP</h2>
The financial sector is now increasingly dependent on technology and software for operations and risk management processes, and SAP stock is a major provider of these processes.
Since the stock has traded up to 95% of its 52-week high, investors can start to see the market reward the name with bullish momentum.
As of September 2024, analysts at Barclays decided to boost their price target on SAP stock to $252 a share and keep their &quot;Overweight&quot; ratings. To prove these analysts right, the stock would need to rally by 14.5% from its current level.
Wall Street analysts think that there will be additional demand for SAP&#39;s services in the coming months, so they forecast up to 52.7% EPS growth for the next 12 months. Based on these expectations, the market is now willing to pay a 34.5x forward P/E ratio over the industry&#39;s average of 28.4x.
<h2>Long Candidate #3: Labor Costs Aided By PTC&#39;s AI</h2>
Now that inflation is pushing the price of everything higher, especially labor, some companies may look to artificial intelligence to help them lower their costs and expand their margins and net profits. This is where the PTC expertise comes into play.
The stock is currently trading at 92% of its 52-week high, making for another bullish momentum play favoring investors. Based on the consensus price target, current analyst ratings suggest the stock could have a valuation as high as $200.2 a share, or a 12% upside from today&#39;s stock price.
With Wall Street EPS growth forecasts set at 19.8% for the next 12 months, investors now can see why the market is willing to pay a premium forward P/E valuation of up to 30.0x over the industry&#39;s average, as stocks that tend to grow above peers command these higher multiples.

Massive Potential: 3 Tech Stocks Positioned for Breakout Success

After a 14-year wait, Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare, are officially <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming">heading to PC. </a>
Take-Two Interactive Software Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTWO#NASDAQ">TTWO</a>) Rockstar Games confirmed that both titles will launch on Oct. 29, 2024, across Steam, the Epic Games Store and the Rockstar Store.

"For the first time in its storied legacy, John Marston's beloved journey can be experienced on PC in stunning, new detail," Rockstar <a href="https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/o3314a19koo147/red-dead-redemption-and-undead-nightmare-coming-to-pc-october-29">said.</a>
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">New Features Tailored For PC Gamers</h1>
The PC port, developed by Double Eleven, who also worked on the 2023 PS4 and Nintendo Switch versions, is packed with enhancements. 
The game will feature native 4K resolution, up to 144Hz on compatible hardware, ultrawide and super ultrawide monitor support, HDR10, and full keyboard and mouse functionality. Additionally, Rockstar included Nvidia DLSS 3.7 and AMD FSR 3.0 upscaling technologies, making the experience even smoother for players on modern hardware.
Another upgrade is the inclusion of adjustable draw distances and shadow quality settings, offering players more customization to suit their systems. Nvidia DLSS Frame Generation, a feature designed to boost performance by increasing frame rates, will also be part of the package.
Despite these improvements, the PC version will only include the complete single-player campaigns for both Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare. Multiplayer content, a popular feature in other Rockstar titles, will not be part of this release.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">System Requirements For Red Dead Redemption PC</h1>
To run the game, players need at least the following specs:
<ul>
<li>Minimum: Intel Core i5-4670 / AMD FX-9590 processor, 8 GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce RTX 960 / AMD Radeon R7 360 graphics, and 12 GB of available storage.</li>
<li>Recommended: Intel Core i5-8500 / AMD Ryzen 5 3500X processor, Nvidia RTX 2070 / AMD RX 5700 XT graphics, with an SSD for optimal performance.</li>
</ul>
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Pricing Still A Mystery</h1>
While pricing information has yet to be revealed, the community is buzzing with excitement. PC players have long felt sidelined by Rockstar's staggered approach to platform releases. 
Rockstar has previously delayed PC versions of games, such as Grand Theft Auto 5, which arrived on PC a year after its console debut. The same situation seems likely with Grand Theft Auto 6, for which no PC version has been announced yet.
The release of Red Dead Redemption on PC has sparked questions about what Rockstar has planned for future updates across other platforms. Players are speculating whether Red Dead Redemption 2 will see enhanced features on the upcoming PS5 Pro, particularly regarding 60fps and 4K resolution modes.

Red Dead Redemption Finally Comes To PC: Everything You Need To Know

AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amn#NYSE">AMN</a>) launched an innovative technology suite, WorkWise, last Wednesday. The suite is expected to unify the company&#39;s technologies into one single technology offering.
Per AMN Healthcare, WorkWise has been designed to streamline workforce processes by combining the capabilities of quantifying staffing demand with predictive scheduling, automated workforce management and enhanced clinician engagement using AI technology. The technology suite will likely empower healthcare systems to efficiently source the appropriate talent, while effectively managing costs.
The latest launch is expected to significantly boost AMN Healthcare&#39;s Technology and Workforce Solutions business and solidify its foothold in the healthcare space.
<h2>Likely Trend of AMN Stock Following the News</h2>
Following the announcement on Oct. 2, shares of the company moved nearly 2.8% south to $38.64 at yesterday&#39;s close.
Historically, the company has gained a high level of synergies from its product launches. Although the latest launch is likely to be beneficial for AMN&#39;s top-line growth going forward, the stock declined overall since the announcement despite a slight gain yesterday.
AMN Healthcare currently has a market capitalization of $1.47 billion. It has an earnings yield of 8.3%, higher than the industry&#39;s 3.6%. In the last reported quarter, AMN delivered an earnings surprise of 30.7%.
<h2>Significance of the Launch of AMN Healthcare&#39;s WorkWise</h2>
Per AMN Healthcare, WorkWise is completely integrated with healthcare organizations&#39; internal systems. This is expected to enable hospitals to optimize personnel for any type of job (permanent, per diem, contract), sourcing from internal and external talent, to reduce costs and predict staffing needs with greater precision. The solution will likely leverage automation and data analysis to provide insights and build engaged talent networks for effective workforce management and increased speed-to-fill for staffing needs.
AMN Healthcare&#39;s management believes that WorkWise will be an integrated solution with multiple capabilities that can work together to address complex workforce challenges in the healthcare industry. It is expected to provide a full end-to-end solution for hospitals and healthcare systems, which is built to adapt and evolve with their needs.
<h2>Industry Prospects in Favor of AMN</h2>
Per a report by Grand View Research, the global healthcare workforce management system market was valued at $1.9 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to witness a CAGR of 13.2% between 2024 and 2030. Factors like the shift toward value-based reimbursements and the increasing adoption of telehealth technologies and AI-driven analytics are likely to drive the market.
Given the market potential, the latest launch will likely provide a significant impetus to AMN Healthcare&#39;s business.
<h2>AMN Healthcare&#39;s Notable Launches</h2>
In August, AMN Healthcare launched Strategic Partnership Solutions. It aims to transform language access programs in healthcare organizations by providing comprehensive language services and strategic support to organizations.
In July, AMN Healthcare introduced a new teletherapy platform, Televate. Per the company, it has been designed to increase access to therapy services for students nationwide.

AMN Stock Down Despite WorkWise Launch to Enhance Healthcare Delivery

With qualities like easy real estate investments without owning, potential for passive income, and diversification, the REIT market is blooming. Against this backdrop, it could be wise to invest in solid REITs Crown Castle (CCI), VICI Properties (VICI), and W. P. Carey (WPC) for potential gains. Read on... REITs hold a wide variety of properties, earn a stable income from tenants, and are mandatorily required to distribute dividends, providing a regular income stream. These factors make REITs suitable for diversification and stable income flow for your portfolios.
Given this backdrop, fundamentally sound REITs, Crown Castle Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CCI/">CCI</a>), VICI Properties Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/VICI/">VICI</a>), and W. P. Carey Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/WPC/">WPC</a>) could be investment choices with dividend yields of over 5%.
Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are an investment alternative in the market that allows investors to invest in real estate without owning or managing material properties themselves. They offer broad exposure and diversified investment portfolios and provide liquidity, high potential for return, and long-term growth.
<a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/reit.asp">REITs</a> typically own and operate income-producing real estate across a wide range of properties like apartment buildings, cell towers, data centers, hotels, medical facilities, and offices. They earn from rent income and property dealings.
Owing to the rapid growth of e-commerce, the global demand for warehousing and storage facilities is continuously rising, opening more avenues for the REIT market. The REIT market is expected to grow at a <a href="https://www.technavio.com/report/reit-market-analysis">CAGR of 2.9%</a> until 2028.
Also, REITs' quality of distributing high and reliable dividends to shareholders on a regular basis makes them an appealing investment choice for investors seeking passive income. This is because REITs are required to <a href="https://www.reit.com/investing/investment-benefits-reits/reits-and-dividend-income">distribute at least 90%</a> of their taxable income to shareholders as dividends.
Considering these conducive trends, let's take a look at the fundamentals of the three best REIT stocks.
Crown Castle Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CCI/">CCI</a>)
CCI operates and leases over 40,000 cell towers and nearly 90,000 route miles of fiber supporting small cells and fiber solutions across every major U.S. market.
On August 8, CCI's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.56 per common share. The quarterly dividend will be paid on September 30, 2024, to stockholders of record at the close of September 13, 2024.
CCI pays an annual dividend of $6.26, which translates to a yield of 5.43% at the current share price. Its four-year average dividend yield is 4.24%. Moreover, the company's dividend payouts have increased at a CAGR of 6.8% over the past five years. CCI has raised its dividends for nine consecutive years.
For the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, CCI reported net revenues of $1.63 billion, of which its total site rental revenues were $1.58 billion. The company's net income came in at $251 million and $0.58 per common share for the quarter, respectively.
Furthermore, the company's <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/affo.asp">AFFO</a> was $704 million and $1.62 per share, respectively.
The company reiterated its full-year 2024 outlook. CCI continues to expect site rental revenues between $6.32 billion and $6.36 billion. It also expects net income of $1.12 billion - $1.19 billion and $2.59 - $2.74 per share. And its adjusted EBITDA is set to range from $4.14 billion to $4.19 billion.

3 Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) With 5%+ Dividend Yields

Investing in real estate, especially REITs is beneficial now due to their high yields and stability in times of economic uncertainty. Therefore, it could be wise to explore investments in robust REITs with over 5% dividend yield, such as Gaming and Leisure Properties (GLPI), VICI Properties (VICI), and Ladder Capital (LADR) for passive income. Keep reading… Real estate investment trusts are historically one of the best-performing asset classes. The FTSE NAREIT Equity REIT Index is what most investors use to gauge the performance of the U.S. real estate market. As of March 2024, <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/articles/mortgages-real-estate/10/real-estate-investment-trust-reit.asp">the index's 10-year average annual return was 6.93%</a>.
Therefore, fundamentally strong REITs, Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/GLPI/">GLPI</a>), VICI Properties Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/VICI/">VICI</a>), and Ladder Capital Corp (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/LADR/">LADR</a>) with over 5% dividend yields might be worthy buys for passive income.
<a href="https://smartasset.com/investing/reit-passive-income">REITs create passive income by leasing properties</a> and collecting rent, which forms their main revenue. This income is then distributed to shareholders as dividends. REITs are required to distribute <a href="https://www.reit.com/investing/financial-benefits-reits">at least 90% of their taxable income</a> to shareholders, often resulting in high and consistent dividend payouts, which can provide a steady income stream.
Moreover, the expansion of e-commerce clearly drives the growing global demand for warehousing and storage facilities, the booming residential sector, and increased government support for infrastructure development. As a result, the REIT market is estimated to grow at a <a href="https://www.technavio.com/report/reit-market-analysis">CAGR of 2.8%</a> by 2027.
