Everytime I am ready to click "SELL", NCT comes along and releases another 20M shares, tanking the price. What gives? I can't be the only investor PO'd at this repetitive action of theirs....

Don't sell NCT.

The new money will be used to purchase assets that will produce more income.

The balance sheet grows and then eventually the PPS.

The dividend isn't directly affected.

This is SOP for a REIT. They wait for the share price to go up, then sell more shares. That's how they grow.

It's OK.

I also own both of those and they are both excellent.

With NCT, I'm expecting to get a better gain in the share price. That's the plan anyway.

Also, I like to be diversified even it lowers the overall dividend rate.

NLY and AGNC are higher priced, at around $7/share you get more shares and more bang for your buck with NCT or ARR

i appreciate your response. thank you!

what other dividend paying stocks do you own? anything in utilities, communications or gas/oil or pipelines you recommend that would be relatively conservative?
