AI Summary

TrimMedium

AAT remains in a Stage 4 downtrend marked by lower highs and lower lows, with supply still dominating demand. A bearish exhaustion signal and extreme oversold readings suggest a relief bounce is probable, so bearish execution should be deferred until shallow rallies into the 21.89–22.32 region near the 20-day EMA. Sustainable weakness below 21.50 would reassert downward momentum.

  • but it's predicted it could be as big as 25 million square feet in the next few years.
  • In the second quarter of 2025, our results came in just above our own expectations. FFO per diluted share was $0.52, and same store, cash in a Y, was approximately flat for Q2 and up 1.4% year-to-date compared to the prior year. These results reflect steady performance in a mixed operating environment and underscore the resilience of our portfolio and the value of our disciplined approach to asset management.
  • We entered Q3 with solid momentum, including approximately 17,000 square feet of executed leases and an additional 111,000 square feet in active lease documentation.
