Cantor Fitzgerald initiates coverage on Extra Space Storage (NYSE: EXR) with a Sell. PT $26.00.

Cantor analyst says, "We view Extra Space Storage as the industry leader, with best-in-class operations, technology, branding, asset quality and portfolio performance. The company is well positioned for long-term growth, despite systemic industry weakness. Value creation should continue as the company executes on strategic acquisitions while furthering operational leverage. The balance sheet is stronger today (although an acceleration of external growth could require higher leverage or equity issuance). Star qualities aside, we consider the stock well valued at current levels and would encourage investors to reconsider at levels nearer $24-$25, barring broader sector shifts."
