Abstract

In this study, we analyze the market quality differences, in terms of liquidity and volatility, between real estate investment trusts (REITs) and non-REIT common stocks. The recent financial crisis has significantly influenced the market quality for REITs. Our findings reveal intraday patterns indicating a lower liquidity, higher volatility, and greater price impact for REITs than non-REITs for the pre-crisis period. These relations reverse during the post-crisis period with REITs becoming more liquid, less volatile, and cheaper to trade than non-REITs. Further, we document that post-crisis trading interest in REITs has increased significantly as reflected by increased volume, number of trades, and number of quotes.
