“In the Real Estate sector, SBA Communications Corporation (NASDAQ:SBAC) is a real estate investment trust engaged in the provision of wireless communications infrastructure services. The company outpaced estimates in its latest quarter and offered upside to forward growth projections. Carrier leasing activity remains very solid as wireless carriers continue to deploy and densify their 5G networks. Despite these positives, the stock slipped -1% as their balance sheet is highly levered amid a rising interest rate environment. A portion of that debt is coming due next March.”
