Chimera Investment Preferreds Update
Chimera Investment Corporation's preferred stock "D" gets a buy rating, others remain a hold. They are well covered by common equity, so defaulting does not appear to be a concern.

Chimera's portfolio is heavily weighted toward residential mortgage loans, with securitization as the primary funding source, providing asset backing for preferreds.
