HST Forecast




Price Forecast:




80% Confidence

Bearish<->Bullish




Bullish Case: A post-pandemic travel boom alongside operational improvements could propel HST above $20, boosted by strategic investments and favorable market sentiment for hospitality REITs in recovery.




Bearish Case: Economic uncertainties, including high inflation and interest rates, may dampen travel demand, forcing HST's price below $15 as revenue struggles under increased operational costs and lower occupancy rates.




Potential Outcomes:
  • 50%: HST approaches or exceeds $20 driven by increased travel demand.
  • 30%: Stagnation around $17 due to ongoing market volatility.
  • 20%: Drop below $15 from economic downturns impacting occupancy rates.




Trading Oracle: Consider a bullish strategy by executing a call spread. Buy the $19.00 call and sell the $20.00 call, targeting earnings reports. This leverages potential upward price movement, focusing on higher implied volatility for December 2024 options, maximizing risk-reward with positive alpha.
