W. P. Carey: Still A Strong Candidate For Long-Term Income Portfolios

W. P. Carey is rated Buy, supported by strong AFFO growth, high occupancy, and a sustainable ~5.14% dividend yield. WPC raised 2026 AFFO guidance to $5.16–$5.26 per share, with an accelerated investment target of $1.5–$2 billion, backed by their ample liquidity available, essentially prefunding it already. Despite slightly elevated leverage and growing macro headwinds, WPC's portfolio pivot from office to industrial/retail and international expansion offers long-term upside.
