Hi All,

Which one of the following two sentences is more correct?
(A press release has come out and I am conveying that there will be many more of such releasese.



1. You should see lots of these press releases from the reits to book the non cash tax provisions.

2. You should see a lot of such press releases from the reits to book the non cash tax provisions.

Thanks,

MG

Both are correct. #1 is probably more common.
What is a "reit"?
I don't really understand what the sentence means. So I conclude that it is business jargon that I'm not familiar with, or it's a poorly written sentence.

REIT = Real Estate Investment Trust. It's a security that sells like a stock on the major stock exchanges and invests in real estate.
