What are Wall Street analysts saying about Digital Realty stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Digital Realty stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of Digital Realty have underperformed the industry it belongs to in the past six months. However, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter and full-year 2018 funds from operations (FFO) per share remained unchanged in a week’s time. Recently, Digital Realty delivered a better-than-expected performance for fourth-quarter 2017 in terms of FFO per share. The results were supported by growth in revenues. Notably, solid demand for data centers as well as accretive acquisitions and development efforts are expected to drive long-term growth of the company. However, it faces intense competition in the industry. Amid this, aggressive pricing pressure is likely to continue in the upcoming period. Moreover, Digital Realty’s earnings have a notable exposure to foreign currency translation. Also, the company has a substantial debt burden. Further, rate hike adds to its woes." (2/20/2018)
