MPW stock ends higher to start 2026 as investors watch rates and Medical Properties Trust’s dividend
Medical Properties Trust, Inc. shares climbed 1.6% on Friday to close at $5.08. U.S. markets are closed on Saturday. Nasdaq

Healthpeak Properties ended last week lower, falling 1.85% to $19.15 on Friday. Volume was heavier than normal for the healthcare REIT, with the drop following just days after a 52-week high. S&P 500 and Dow both finished Friday up, which set Healthpeak’s decline apart from a broader sector move.
