Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 28% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published July 22, 2025
The stock pays more than 5% a year in dividends after 15 years of steady increases and is priced about 14% below the estimated value of its storage buildings. Trading shows more buyers than sellers lately. Because almost all loans carry fixed rates, higher interest costs should hardly touch profits. The July 31 results could prove the stores are still earning well, which may lift the price to $47-48 within three months.
Primary drivers
- Offers over 5% yearly income and has raised it for 15 straight years
- July 31 report should show storage sites still making steady cash
- Shares sit 14% below property value and demand appears to be rising
- Fixed-rate borrowing means higher interest costs have little bite
How it played out
CUBE: target missed by the end of the window
Lyra published CUBE on 2025-07-22 at $40.48 for a short-term window ending 2025-10-20. The thesis expected 12% growth. It pointed to more than 5% yearly income, 15 straight years of dividend increases, shares priced 14% below property value, fixed-rate borrowing, and the July 31 report as a possible check on steady store earnings.
Inside the window, CUBE rose, but it never reached the $44.10 target. The highest price was $41.88 on 2025-10-20, a 3.4% peak gain. It ended at $41.65. The thesis partially played out on direction, but missed on the target.
Prices are shown split- and dividend-adjusted, matching what public charts show today.
