REIT Outlook?

Recently there was a hike in treasury bond yields due to the promising labor statistics that were released last week. How do you guys think this bodes for most REITs? I think the labor statistics were a little misleading and over estimate demand and GDP growth moving forward because a huge percent of the population is still underemployed. My outlook is hold/sell, leaning towards sell based on the opportunity cost considering the general bull market.

They are doing well, in fact, to well. I believe they are in for a correction in 2015 or 16.

The BLS labor reports are a pile of shit. The "real" unemployment is hovering around 10% and just b/c so many Americans are lazy and decided they no longer will be looking for positions, doesn't mean they should be discarded from the labor force.
