AFFO per share and payout ratio
Not sure why there was a concern about the dividend being cut? When you go to the analyst models - I will use CIBC as an example - their AFFO per share estimate ( Adjusted Funds From Operations - which is a metric that measures true cash flow) is at 1.98 for 2024 - dividend is .72 and their calculation is a payout ratio of 36.3% - for 2025 the AFFO per share is projected to be 2.19 - with a .72 distribution per share which works out to a 32.9% payout ratio.

Yup. No idea why anyone is concerned. Earnings are growing and debt is being paid down, while rates are dropping.

Definitely manipulation. Massive manipulation. How else could we end up where we are right now. Brave new future.
