Dividend stocks are under pressure from rising long-term interest rates. What matters most in the near term is where interest rates are headed next. I detail the factors at play and where I think the best risk-adjusted places to allocate capital today are.

REITs have evolved into a larger, more diversified, and better-capitalized asset class, now less sensitive to Treasury yields than in prior cycles. Modern REITs feature lower leverage (34.4% debt), predominantly fixed-rate, long-maturity debt, and strong liquidity, supporting resilience amid higher rates. Supply constraints and rising replacement costs create durable moats for select REIT sectors, especially those with HALO (Heavy Assets, Low Obsolescence) characteristics.

Farmland Partners Inc. is rated "Buy" with a $13.80 target, offering a 35% upside from the current $10.25 price, based on NAV support. The investment thesis emphasizes asset value over income, as AFFO does not cover the dividend and the stock trades at 31.1x AFFO. Key catalysts include noncore land sales, buybacks below NAV, lease renewals, and loan normalization, all supporting NAV realization and debt reduction.

Farmland Partners is deeply undervalued, trading at 70% of NAV despite strong farmland fundamentals and asset appreciation. FPI's AFFO-based valuation misses substantial land appreciation, which is a major component of true economic earnings in farmland. Current farmland fundamentals—rising commodity prices, strong export trends, and robust crop insurance—support continued land value and income growth.

Not Every REIT Joined The Recovery: Part 2 focuses on the relatively small group of laggards where company-specific credit, legal, refinancing, or asset-level issues overshadowed an otherwise very strong earnings. Weakness Was More Company-Specific Than Sector-Wide: Empire State Realty's Observatory shortfall, JBG Smith's adverse Wardman Tower ruling, Community Healthcare's dividend cut, and several troubled mortgage portfolios drove some individual downside. Mortgage Stress Hasn't Fully Cleared: Commercial mREIT book values fell nearly 5% on average as office, lab space, and multifamily credit problems persisted for some sponsors.

Farmland Partners NYSE: FPI reported higher adjusted funds from operations per share in the second quarter of 2026 and modestly raised the low end of its full-year AFFO outlook, while management said it continues to evaluate non-core asset sales and remains cautious about agricultural lease renewals amid pressure on farm-sector finances.
