One of Ben Stein's favorite ETFs.dividends will come back in 2010 ! While the commercial US real estate market hasn't suffered to badly, I expect that will change. I think the current price and recent price fall reflects some of this weekness. However, the price could sink some more before bottoming out. As long as they keep up the dividends, I'll be happy!Deeply discounted with a very high dividend yield that will be back in the near future .. Bound for a rebound.
