Other healthcare REITs like Welltower (WELL) and Omega Healthcare Investors (OHI) experienced similar growth, with shares rising around 4%. In contrast, shares of Healthcare Realty Trust (HR) increased by 2.9% to $15.54.
The changes in stock performance come after a period of significant volatility, with some REITs experiencing losses over the past year. ARE was down 23.9%, VTR up 5.4%, while DOC had dropped 12.8%. WELL and OHI saw gains of 6.9% and 2.9%, respectively, but HR still faced losses of 12.9%.
