We all learn over time. Some of us more than others. The agency mortgage REIT price-to-book ratios are getting really high, except for the weaker ones. That doesn't make the weak ones a great bargain. Main Street Capital stands out among BDCs for superior management and NAV growth, but that valuation just refuses to come down.

Big dividends sound great, but how about big losses? Since Q2 2025 began, book values got smacked. Not talking about share prices. You can tell if the share price declined (hopefully). That would be a worthless article. One of these high-yield sectors has been doing much better than the others.

I've been accumulating RC's 6.50% Series E Preferreds, amid a significant year-to-date selloff. They're trading for 62 cents on the dollar and offer a 10.5% dividend yield. RC common shares are down 40% year-to-date, while the E preferreds have dipped 16%. I think the selloff is overdone and the preferreds provide a compelling risk-to-reward profile at their current level.
