Prologis Trading Volume Surges 70% to $330M Ranks 307th as Rate-Cut Hopes Lift Industrial Real Estate Demand

On August 11, 2025, Prologis (PLD) traded with a volume of $0.33 billion, a 70.09% increase from the prior day, ranking 307th in market activity. The stock closed down 1.51% for the session.

Recent analyses highlight Prologis as a beneficiary of anticipated Federal Reserve rate cuts, which could boost demand for industrial real estate. As a logistics REIT, Prologis is positioned to capitalize on e-commerce-driven warehouse leasing trends. In Q2 2025, the company reported 95.1% occupancy and a 9.9% rise in rental income. With a forward P/FFO in the mid-20s and a 2.8% dividend yield, PLD remains a focal point for investors tracking rate-sensitive sectors. Historical context shows the stock surged from $60 to $175 during the 2020-2023 low-rate cycle, suggesting potential upside if aggressive rate reductions materialize.

The strategy of purchasing the top 500 stocks by daily trading volume and holding them for one day delivered a 166.71% return from 2022 to the present, outperforming the benchmark return of 29.18% by 137.53%.
