Prologis (PLD-N)

It's the largest provider of industrial real estate in the world, publicly traded, around 2-3% of global GDP flows through their buildings. E-commerce if fueling industrial RE, such as Amazon. Also, PLD uses analytics to help increase the flow of goods through their buildings. However, many people built such buildings, then higher interest rates drove up those costs. So, more supply and higher rates and slower rent growth weighed on this sector. The silver lining is that higher rates killed some projects, so the current supply will get absorbed and then rents will increase again. PLD is one of the best ways to play this.
