    Hi pinkrabbit, The two crucial numbers are book value per share; net interest margin. The balance sheet holdings (for AGNC) include implicit guaranteed GSE MBS, hedges, derivatives. They are levered and interest rate movement can be negative if it moves wickedly upward. TJ

    Morning richbar, I'm looking for a personal "best entry price". Many investors don't care about the entry price. These are mREITs. They have a distinct, sector-based valuation: book value. Everything revolves around book value. TJ

    Morning chirp. These are always on a tight leash as interest reates can change quickly. TJ

    Hi Pablo, management makes the call on non-agency/agency positioning. There is a limit of non agency paper - for Mr. Kain to accumulate. The management fee is based upon AUM. MTGE has been issuing secondaries when the market permits. TJ

    Morning Pencil, yes. The council should report their findings next week. Most industry experts believe a change would require Congressional approval.

    What is the least desirable outcome? The Council states mREITs are a source of market vulnerability - and the mREITs close up shop. They sell their GSE MBS. The GSE MBS have gone up in the mean time as the 10-year is at 1.73%.

    Just political nonsense. TJ

    Maybenot, it can last if deflation exists and rates stay in this zone. Deflation is a big negative to the economy, but wages are decreasing; unemployment increasing if we include those who stop looking. TJ

  • 3 Healthcare REITs For Dividend Investors [View article]
    HI MexCom,

    Winnebago Industries, Inc. (WGO) is 100% not my speed. I understand the rationale.

    Many sectors (consumer staples, healthcare REITs) are becoming a bit silly in their valuations.

    Hi Trevose_Lion,

    OHI is quality. At some point - these names are "over owned" and simply propped up by momo traders. In that case, an investor must decide if any action is necessary.

    I have found that everyone is "buy and hold" investor until the stock starts going down fast-and-furious.
