Sixth Street Specialty Lending: Time To Pull The Trigger And Buy (Rating Upgrade)
Sixth Street Specialty Lending offers a well-covered 9% dividend yield, with robust dividend coverage and supplemental dividends, making it attractive for passive income investors. The BDC's focus on first liens, which are the safest loans, provides portfolio and income stability, especially during economic uncertainties. Despite a high price-to-NAV ratio, TSLX's 9% yield is affordable, with potential for re-rating higher based on net investment income metrics.

Let's Talk Mortgage REITs (But Not For Too Long)
A bunch of mortgage REITs were severely overvalued. Now they are less overvalued. But some others are actually bargains. Tons of charts because images are fun. Ellington Financial's higher price-to-book ratio may be due to lower volatility in the total economic return by period. Digital Realty Trust deserves to be mocked. I am reporting for duty!
