MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Digital Realty Trust, Inc. for these reasons:

  • The high payout ratio of 128.08% indicates that the company is distributing more in dividends than it earns, which could be unsustainable in the long run.
  • Despite recent revenue growth, the company has a relatively high price-to-earnings (PE) ratio of 45.54, which may suggest that the stock is overvalued compared to its earnings.
  • The stock has shown volatility, with a beta of 0.96, indicating that it may be subject to market fluctuations, which could pose risks for investors seeking stability.
  • Recent analyst ratings show a mix of opinions, with one analyst issuing a "Sell" rating, which could indicate potential concerns about the company's future performance.
  • The company operates in a highly competitive sector, and any shifts in technology or market demand could adversely affect its growth prospects.
