Easterly Government Properties: 8% Dividend Yield And Tailwinds From Lower Rates Could Generate Alpha
DEA's recent dividend cut and improved financials set the stage for long-term growth, but I maintain a hold rating for now. Solid Q2 earnings, strategic acquisitions, and a 97% leased portfolio highlight DEA's operational strength and growth runway. Dividend safety has improved with a lower payout ratio and rising cash available for distribution, but I caution investors to wait for further sequential improvements.

Powell Pivot Sparks REIT Rebound
U.S. equity markets notched another series of record highs this week, surging into the weekend after surprisingly dovish commentary from Federal Reserve Chair Powell, who hinted at imminent rate cuts. Powell used his final Jackson Hole speech as Fed Chair to deliver a clear policy pivot, an unexpected reversal after months of insistence that tariff-related inflation warranted a hawkish framework. Markets were equally relieved by the policy-focused nature of Powell's speech amid speculation that the address may be used instead as a potential defiant sermon on central bank independence.

Easterly Government Properties: This Reliable REIT With Mission-Critical Assets Is Too Cheap
Easterly Government Properties offers a reliable, mission-critical government tenant base, providing stable cash flow and downside protection across economic cycles. Easterly Government Properties stock trades at a historically low P/FFO multiple, despite strong fundamentals and a conservative payout ratio, signaling significant undervaluation. A recent dividend cut aligns DEA with peers, freeing up cash for growth and supporting long-term FFO per share expansion.
