Real estate investment trusts have had an up-and-down year, but have swung back into the black for the year. Now, U.S. REITs — as tracked by the Vanguard REIT Index Fund (NYSEARCA:VNQ) — are up 17% over the past 52 weeks, which is a couple percentage points better than the S&P 500.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)And right now, three of these high-yielding assets are jumping out at me.

My Turner Analytics system, which uses sophisticated software and tools to screen over 6,000 stocks and exchange-traded funds based on fundamental and technical research, has flagged all three of these REIT stocks as “strong buys” right now.

Turner Analytics is unlike any other trade-timing tool out there, marrying both fundamental and technical analysis to zero in on big winners. My fundamental components include an analysis of a company’s financials and operations that will drive up the demand for shares, while my technical ratings tell you exactly when to buy and when to sell.

Just today, for example, my market-timing trade-bias research is screaming that there is a big potential in REITs right now. This area of the market is flashing a strong bullish rating via my Turner Analytics tool, meaning there is a tailwind for every company in this segment of the market. And on top of that, among REITs, my system has identified some very strong companies right now that have even more potential than their peers.

Take a look at the charts on these big-time potential winners!
