** BMO trims price targets across several office REITs, citing continued valuation pressure, constrained capital markets, and persistent downside risks tied to refinancing and longer-term demand uncertainty

** Brokerage says office demand, already strained by work-from-home, faces a larger structural risk from AI that could sharply reduce white-collar employment

** Adds that the sector has not fully recovered from COVID-era utilization declines, compounding long-term demand concerns

** Says discounted valuations limit access to external growth and increase earnings and valuation volatility
