Its major business is leasing office and industrial properties. Fundamentally, LRY beats earning estimate until Q4 2008, and early retired debt that was scheduled to mature in 2010.

America Capital Agency (AGNC), annual div yield 19.56%, mortgage investment REIT, primarily invests in government agency backed MBS, plays with the spread between MBS and repurchase agreements. Gary Kain, former Freddie Mac Capital Markets SVP was hired to head the investment team. AGNC will pay $0.85 cash dividend. market cap was 265 mln, avg volume is 243K. When talking about investing in Hybrid ARMs, Gary prefers investing in CMT ARM than Libor ARM. Technically, the stock reversed the bullish trend right after Q4 2008 earning announcement, it’s very hard for the company to maintain a bullish trend in 2008, but AGNC weathered storm by investing in “option strategy”. However, AGNC stopped using that strategy starting from Q1 2009, therefore investors are concerned about the profitability of future investment strategy and future of dividends. The pressure on stock prices reflects that concern.
Books-A-Million (BAMM), annual div yield 4.32%. Technically BAMM looks bullish in long term, however, in short term, it’s bearish, it should go back to 3 to 3.5 range before it goes up again.

Wednesday 4/1/2009

Hatteras Financial Corp (HTS), annual div yield 17.95%, market cap 869m, avg vol 532,332, REIT that invests in mortgage backed securities, will pay cash dividend $1.05 per share. HTS invests in Fannie and Freddie hybrid ARM, in their portfolio, Fannie ARM takes 70%, Freddie takes 30%. The total Agency ARM market is 300+ B. HTS’ funding comes from Libor Swap and Repo, funding rates are indexed to 30 day Libor. The company did well in 2008 because rate dislocation caused by market volatility made the funding rate low, but MBS rate was relatively stable. However, recent government decision to buy MBS drove down the MBS rates, therefore the NIM in 2009 may get lower than 2008. This uncertainty maybe the reason by HTS chart seems a little bearish even though the company recently raised dividend.
