Did some DD on Meditrust. Yield is 11.78%, dividend was just cut. Messy reit - lodging and healthcare. REVPAR at La Quinta will be difficult - too much capacity in low-end hotel rooms. Forward equity sale to Merrill may cause dilution - lots of debt. Bass owns this stock because Meditrust purchased La Quinta with stock?

I am telling you - Ventas is cheaper and is a walk in the park relative to this complicated animal. Rent goes up 3% per year, dividend goes up 3% per year - no operating risk. (no golf coarse or race tracks to sell either)
