CTRECareTrust REIT, Inc.
Is it safe?
No red flags in what's measurable: comfortable debt (AA) and steady price behavior.
Rock-solid balance sheet, low leverage. A rule of thumb on leverage, not a credit rating.
Relatively steady, low volatility. Worst drawdown -67% · now 17% below its 52-week high.

Where this answer is blind. Altman sits structurally low for utilities and pipelines; Beneish runs high for fast growers, since sales growth alone lifts it; banks and REITs are excluded.
