High trailing P/E, unremarkable RoE, plenty of debt and no particular niche that will allow it to excel going forward. No reason the S&P shouldn't outperform CITZ.

I believe this stock will underperform going forward. While the Company continues to pay out dividends, it is relying upon using its investments to meet its cash flow needs. Net worth is steadily declining period over period, despite the fact that the Company is making money. If the Company cannot do something to curb its use of capital, it will eventually burn through all the investments and be left with nothing of value. Might turn around in the future, but for now, it will underperform.
