(NYSE: AEC), but lowered the price target from $18.00 to $17.50.In the report, Jefferies noted, “The overall tone at NAREIT in Chicago was positive from most management teams. If we didn't know any better, it would seem as if the RMZ isn't down ~10% in two weeks on concern that rising interest rates could slow down transactions, increase funding costs and result in higher cap rates.
