Host Hotels & Resorts: Hold Amid Limited Upside, Yield Remains Stable
Host Hotels & Resorts' operational performance remains solid, but growth is moderating and cost pressures are likely to persist, limiting near-term upside. The balance sheet is healthy, with low leverage, strong interest coverage, and a conservative payout ratio supporting yield stability. Valuation appears reasonable, but recent share price rebound already factors in rate-cut optimism, leaving little room for capital appreciation.
