Public Storage pairs PS4.0 growth plans with softer 2026 outlook

The call presents a two-sided picture: operational and capital-allocation initiatives offer potential support, while management’s 2026 outlook still points to modest core FFO decline and ongoing same-store pressure. The thesis depends on whether pricing and occupancy stabilize and planned investments translate into returns.
