Confirming evidence

  • • Value remains the lead driver in the composite.

Contradictions & invalidation

  • • Decline in occupancy or ADRs
  • • Dividend cut or slower-than-expected demand recovery
  • • Bear case: weaker corporate travel, wider cap rates, or a dividend reduction compresses multiples toward analyst lows near $6.00; leverage amplifies downside.
