Two million Americans turn 80 this year, and four REITs are racing to profit from a demographic wave that has barely started while construction sits at historic lows.

Dividend coverage is robust at 1.9x, with a conservative 52% payout ratio, though yield is below sector median.
Ventas offers compelling long-term growth, driven by its dominant senior housing portfolio and favorable demographic tailwinds.

Management raised 2026 FFO/share guidance and acquisition targets, leveraging a strong balance sheet and data-driven platform for continued expansion.
