Brixmor price target raised to $31 from $29 at UBS

UBS raised the firm’s price target on Brixmor (BRX) to $31 from $29 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. 2026 is expected to mark a pivotal REIT turnaround, with forecast total returns of 9%-11% driven by improving macro conditions, attractive valuations, easing supply pressures, and a more stable political backdrop, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The outlook points to a bifurcated year with defensiveness in the first half of 2026 and stronger catalysts in the second half, favoring Healthcare, Shopping Centers, and Coastal Apartments, UBS says.
