## Elevator Pitch

- Seeking Alpha analysts seem to be broadly bullish on Medical Properties Trust. But I have a different view as I believe there are hidden risks in this REIT.
- I have lower confidence in asset quality due to doubts about increasing accounts receivable days.
- Leverage and operators' rent coverage metrics are worsening.
- The portfolio is struggling even if Prospect rebounds.
- Nevertheless, I rate the REIT as a tactical 'neutral/hold' due to the historically low valuation multiples and the increased chances of a short squeeze.
