The Senior Care Pricing Disconnect

by | Nov 11, 2015 8:32 am | 60 Seconds, Opinion

The public equity market for senior care operating companies and REITs is getting slammed, but the private investment market remains strong. The pricing disconnect continues. Public equity investors continue to slam the senior care operating companies and health care REITs.

REIT Shares Under Pressure Again

Easy for me to say. But with the recent rise in rates,... Read More »
