I'm Avoiding Most High-Yielding Mortgage REITs, Except For A Few
I avoid highly leveraged, high-yield mREITs due to unsustainable dividends and elevated risk of cuts, especially in volatile markets. Most commercial mortgage REITs with yields above 10% are red flags; I recommend steering clear of 'sucker yields' like SACH and KREF. Starwood Property Trust and Ladder Capital stand out for strong balance sheets, prudent management, and compelling growth prospects.

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.
