AGNC, Instability, Diversity And Cash
The current coupon spread to a blend of swap rates peaked at 230 basis points, nearing the COVID pandemic high of 235 basis points. Recent spreads were 220 basis points, indicating elevated levels but slightly reduced from the peak. AGNC effectively managed recent market volatility, although its net asset value was negatively impacted by the mortgage spread widening.

30 April Ideal "Safer" Monthly Paying Dividend Stocks And 80 Funds
Investing $1,000 in top-yielding MoPay stocks can yield significant returns, with estimated gains of 21.06% to 40.99% by April 2026. MoPay stocks are affordable but come with higher volatility and risk, making them suitable for investors seeking high yields despite potential market fluctuations.

AGNC Investment: Hedging Actions Protect 9% Yielding Preferreds
AGNC Investment Corp.'s preferred shares, especially AGNCO, offer a safer high-yield alternative amid economic uncertainty and rising interest rates. AGNC's hedging strategies, including interest rate swaps and shorting US Treasury bonds, have effectively offset borrowing costs and supported net interest income. Skepticism remains for AGNC's common shares due to dilution and declining tangible book value, despite a high dividend yield.

AGNC Investment: Why I Am Greedy For This 16% Yield
AGNC Investment reported decent Q1 results, with significant growth in net interest income and a positive net interest spread. The REIT's yield has surged to 16% amid the recent market sell-off, and it is well-positioned to benefit from potential Federal Reserve rate cuts in 2025. AGNC is trading at book value, presenting a compelling value proposition amid market uncertainty and potential rate cuts.

Tensions Ease Ahead Of Critical Week
US equity markets resumed their recovery this week from the "liberation day" plunge after the White House negotiated trade deals with several nations and indicated plans to ease China tariffs. Trimming its drawdown to around 10% from its mid-February highs, the S&P 500 rallied 4.6% this week - erasing an early-week dip with four-straight days of gains. After posting significant outperformance last week, real estate equities were among the laggards this week despite a solid start to REIT earnings season and a much-needed retreat in benchmark rates.
