AI CONVICTION THESIS

Apple Hospitality REIT clears the calibrated bar on a buyback retiring 0.80% of shares outstanding, with all three legs above the floor (Q58 V54 M76) and momentum leading. A REIT repurchasing equity while trading below replacement value is a clearer capital-allocation statement than the usual acquire-and-issue pattern, and nothing adverse is on file.
