- Thursday, April 25, 3:24 PM The Homebuilder ETF (XHB +1.2%) gains after PulteGroup (PHM +5.5%) reported Q1 closings up 23%, with the average selling price up 10%. Meritage Homes (MTH +1.1%) yesterday reported a 17% increase in prices, while Ryland Group (RYL +6.7%) last night said its average price rose 8.2%. "Housing demand is greater than the supply of homes available for sale in many of the areas where we operate," says Meritage CEO Steven Hilton. Comment! [On the Move]
- Friday, March 22, 1:05 PM The mREITs are back in favor after the Fed's QE∞ hit interest margins in Q4. A widening yield curve helps, but managements weren't powerless either. Share buybacks below book and altered business plans - Annaly's purchase of CreXus for one, others upping exposure to non-agency RMBS another - are sitting well with investors. Up 2.1% today, NLY is trading above book for the first time in a long time. 2 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Thursday, February 7, 10:54 AM CYS Investments (CYS -4.1%) leads the mortgage REIT sector lower after last night's earnings. "The opportunities ... are quite a bit narrower," says CEO Kevin Grant on the earnings call (transcript), with the net interest spread of 108 bps "a pretty good indicator" of such. On a hopeful note, he thinks D.C. may be turning its focus to the non-agency market, which would take some pressure off agency players such as CYS. 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]
- Thursday, January 17, 9:25 AM A check on the homebuilder ETFs finds both XHB and ITB about 1% higher premarket following the big housing starts number. It's no news multi-family starts were of particular strength (longer-term chart), and Lennar (LEN) got on board this week, announcing its entry into that segment of the business. Comment! [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, November 7, 2012, 9:40 AM It's a jittery mortgage REIT sector as last night's election assures the Fed will continue to strangle the leveraged operators' net interest margins. Annaly (NLY -2.8%) - the purest of the pure-play agency REITs - still reeling from Monday's poor earnings, leads to the downside. AGNC -2%, TWO -2.3%, HTS -2.1%. 27 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Tuesday, November 6, 2012, 2:44 PM "The active involvement of policymakers in the mortgage market ... has introduced unique challenges for all investors," says Annaly (NLY -3.7%) CEO Wellington Denehan-Norris on the earnings call (transcript), not hiding her frustration with all the meddling. Credit Suisse cuts its price target on NLY to $16 from $17. (earlier) 1 Comment [Financials, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 31, 2012, 10:23 AM In addition to solid earnings and a stock repurchase announcement, American Capital Agency (AGNC +2.5%) basks in the glow of an upgrade to Buy from Hold at Wunderlich. The entire mREIT sector is lit up bright green. MORT +1.6%. 4 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 9:06 AM Several homebuilders get downgraded at Raymond James, among them TOL, MDC, and RYL. All three - along with the rest of the sector - are showing solid premarket gains, however, as the strong housing starts number controls the tape. XHB +2.1% premarket. 1 Comment [U.S. Economy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 8:57 AM Annaly (NLY) is upgraded to Buy from Neutral at Compass Point following last night's buyback announcement, "a smart reallocation of capital ... (and) a floor for the share price." Noting likely high prepayment rates, Compass Point says the Fed's continued bid for MBS should keep book values - for Annaly and the rest of the sector - strong. Shares +2.2% premarket. 11 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 10, 2012, 9:46 AM Mortgage REITs continue to slide - NLY -1%, AGNC -2%, HTS -2.3%, to name 3 - the sector revaluing itself for what must surely be significant dividend cuts. The Fed's MBS purchases - likely to help book values and dividend maintenance in the short run - are vaporizing net interest margins. Absent a big jump in leverage, returns must fall. 58 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Wednesday, September 21, 2011, 9:53 AM CreXus (CXS) knocks out a 4.5% gain on the open after the firm declares a $0.30 dividend to shareholders, pushing up the yield on the REIT to an eye-catching 13.5%. Comment! [Financials, On the Move]
