Overweight -> Sector Weight
Reason
KeyBanc downgraded Regency Centers to Sector Weight from Overweight without a price target. The firm adjusted ratings in the real estate investment trust space as part of its 2026 outlook. KeyBanc expects a 5%-15% total return in 2026 for the sector but says the fundamentals across REIT subsectors "remain on uneven paths." Lower levels of new supply growth continue to provide support as conditions firm up across property types, but economy "appears to be downshifting," the analyst tells investors in a research note. KeyBanc believes REIT valuations appear expensive versus the 10-year treasury and investment grade bonds. It upgraded three names and downgraded four into 2026.
