Reason
Cantor Fitzgerald lowered the firm's price target on Alexandria Real Estate to $46 from $48 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. U.S. equity REITs returned 2.9% in 2025, lagging the S&P 500, but 2026 may offer optimism with a potentially more supportive macro environment and an accelerating M&A theme, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Stable supply and demand fundamentals, balance sheet strength, and a well-covered, growing 4% dividend yield make the sector attractive despite past underperformance, Cantor adds.

Reason
Jefferies lowered the firm's price target on Alexandria Real Estate to $47 from $62 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares as part of a broader research note previewing 2026 for Healthcare REITs. The firm expects another challenging year for lab landlords as elevated market vacancy and a 9.6% decline in trailing-12-month biotech funding will drive below-average retention in 2026, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Landlords have limited negotiating leverage, and the firm's market forecast suggests this will persist for several years, Jefferies added.
