    "excerpt": "Senior housing pays off big for this owner, now worth $160 billion market value.\n\nShankh Mitra, chief executive of the senior-housing company Welltower, made one of commercial real estate's most daring bets in 2020.\n\nWelltower spent more than $40 billion over the following six years to acquire tens of thousands of senior-housing units, while many rivals retreated when the pandemic caused senior-facility occupancy rates to plummet. Welltower now owns more than 2,500 senior-living communities, the most of anyone in the industry.\n\nThat move is paying off as these properties fill up again. Welltower's market value has increased close to sevenfold to about $160 billion since 2020, making it the world's largest publicly traded real-estate company.\n\nMitra has been well compensated for the turnaround. He received a compensation package valued at $821 million last year, according to The Wall Street Journal's annual analysis of executive pay using data from MyLogIQ. That was the biggest pay package for any public-company CEO in America, save for Elon Musk.\n\nWhile that payout is contingent on Welltower's stock continuing to climb, the magnitude of Mitra's compensation is sparking a backlash.\n\nInstitutional Shareholder Services, a proxy advisory firm, recommended that shareholders vote against the pay package, describing the awards as being of \"extraordinary value.\"\n\nJonathan Litt...",
