§Winston Score History

The full picture

STAG Industrial is a real estate company that owns and rents out large warehouse and distribution buildings across the United States. Its tenants are mostly manufacturers, e-commerce companies, and logistics businesses that need space to store and ship goods. STAG is one of the few industrial REITs focused specifically on single-tenant buildings in smaller, secondary markets rather than major coastal hubs.

The company makes money by collecting rent from long-term leases, typically running five to ten years, which creates steady and predictable income. STAG owns roughly 570 buildings totaling over 110 million square feet, spread across more than 40 states. It pays monthly dividends to shareholders, which is unusual for a REIT and appeals to income-focused investors. The main growth driver is continued demand for warehouse space tied to e-commerce expansion, but the main risk is rising interest rates, which increase borrowing costs and can pressure the value of real estate assets.
