Which is better, DOC or FRT?

On the Buffett-Fit framework, Federal Realty Investment Trust (FRT) currently grades higher than DOC — 51/100 (D grade) vs 56/100 (C). That said, "better" depends on which framework you trust — DOC wins on Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham, and Joel Greenblatt; FRT wins on Philip Fisher, Peter Lynch, Charlie Munger, and Terry Smith. The full pillar breakdown is on this page.

Should I buy DOC or FRT?

This page is an educational comparison, not investment advice. Both DOC and FRT are graded against the same Buffett 5-pillar framework (moat, earnings durability, management quality, financial health, valuation) plus six other documented investor frameworks. Read the side-by-side breakdown to see which one matches the criteria you care about most — and always do your own research before making any investment decision.

Is DOC better than FRT for value investing?

On the Buffett-style value-investing framework, FRT currently grades higher — 56/100 vs 51/100, a 5-point gap. The gap is driven by which pillars each stock passes; the table on this page shows moat, durability, management, financial health, and valuation side-by-side.

What's the difference between DOC and FRT on Warren Buffett's framework?

Both stocks are evaluated on the same five pillars: economic moat (durable competitive advantage), earnings durability (consistent profitability), management quality (capital allocation), financial health (conservative balance sheet), and valuation (margin of safety). DOC currently scores 56/100 (C grade); FRT scores 51/100 (D grade). The "Where each wins" section on this page breaks down which pillar each stock dominates.

Which has the stronger moat, DOC or FRT?

Moat strength is one of the five pillars in the Buffett-Fit score on this page. DOC and FRT are each scored on ROIC sustainability, gross-margin durability, and qualitative signals like brand strength, switching costs, network effects, and regulatory barriers. The pillar breakdown on this page shows the moat sub-score side-by-side so you can see which one has the more durable competitive advantage.

Which is more undervalued, DOC or FRT?

Valuation is one of the five Buffett-Fit pillars on this page. Both stocks are scored on owner-earnings yield, price-to-intrinsic-value vs the underlying compounding rate, and the margin of safety relative to a conservative DCF. The valuation sub-score in the table below tells you which one currently trades at a more attractive price relative to its underlying business quality.

Are DOC and FRT both Real Estate stocks?

Yes — both Healthpeak Properties, Inc. (DOC) and Federal Realty Investment Trust (FRT) operate in the Real Estate sector. That makes this a direct sector-peer comparison, which is the apples-to-apples way to use the Buffett-Fit framework: the score weighs each stock against its sector's specific quality and valuation benchmarks (sector-relative bonus), so the cross-stock comparison isn't distorted by inter-sector base-rate differences.

Is this DOC vs FRT comparison investment advice?

No. This page is an educational pattern-match against documented public frameworks (Buffett, Graham, Fisher, Lynch, Greenblatt, Munger, Smith), not personalised investment advice. The scores reflect how closely each stock matches each framework's documented criteria — they are not buy/hold/sell recommendations. Always do your own research and consult a licensed financial adviser for personalised advice.
