Technical say ASX REITS are overboughtWhile doing my daily search for possible trade options i found that among my many short alerts had a common trait. 5/8 Short alerts were all REITs.
Now I'm not saying real estate is gonna crash or to prepare for another 2008 crisis however it appears that most ASX REITs are overvalued from a technical standpoint which opens the idea for a potential short.
These stocks will be displayed below along with the bearish indicators aswell

Dexus, Goodman Group aswell as Cromwell property also have signs of being oversold however was not alerted by my scripts.
Overall i see a pretty solid consensus that a majority of the ASX REITS are overvalued and a possible drop can be ahead however as real estate stocks jump more reactively to fundamental announcements it is important to also address that aswell.
