Great dividend, good numbers. Might dump in 2013ish when rates start to increase (possibly).

there's free money right now thanks to the fed, and hopefully the economy is coming back.

Interest rates remaining low, housing sector will be slow for next 2-4 years. Even if interest rates rise, reits will rise to the occasion.

HTS is different from many other REITS as they specifically focus on ARM investments. This short term hurts their yield but longer term protects them somewhat from interest rates. The analysts estimates are for $4.23 in 2012 which if they pay out 95% of this would give a forward dividend yield of about 13.05%. They are also expected to grow earnings by about 8.4% in the next year or so which puts the PEG at 0.81. The stock is also just slightly less then 10% off it's 52 week high.

It pays a 17% dividend at current price, but it has to be monitored increase inflation returns, (not if - when).
Recs
As long as interest rates stay low, REITS will be very profitable and pay huge dividends. Interest rates should remain low for at least 2 more years as the Real Estate market is still under pressure. The economy can't afford not to rescue Real Estate, so the Federal Government will do whatever it has to do.

its one of the stocks the "Experts" from most advisors say "Stay Away" But being a contrarian and a risk taker, I like it! It's made me rake in some decent returns. In all, for the past 12 years, I've done better than the Street!!

Buying this for the dividend so long as there is no hint of interest rates being raised

Fundamentally this stock bets on the US Gov't. It makes financial transactions using only mortgage instruments that are guaranteed by the United States. It is in a fundamentally "no lose" position. Profits are never truly guaranteed in anything, but this is as close to a safe harbor as you can get in anything dealing with real estate financials. It also has an excellent dividend rate and should show steady progressive growth as the recovery continues. Expect profits and value to rise as real estate transactions start to regain something closer to a normal volume.
Recs
As Real Estate starts to pick up so will this stock.
Recs
Fed should hold interest rates low for most of next year allowing HTS to enjoy a good spread between borrowing costs and investment income. This is based on belief that we will be in a deflationary or non-growth environment thru 2010 and continue in a long term bear market. HTS will lose market value but not as much as the S&P.

Hatteras Financial is an interesting REIT that was founded in 2007. This would seem to be the peak of the bubble, but Hatteras doesn't seem to be affected. Although they deal in residential mortgages they are in the form of pass-through securities guaranteed or issued by a United States Government agency or sponsored agency. They are at a 52 week high. The dividend is holding at an impressive 13%. ON Caps you only credited a portion of the dividends, so overall you can come up short on CAPS playing pure dividend stocks. In this case Hatteras is also appreciating in price while paying the dividends. It seems hard to believe that we can have a successful REIT in this climate or count on dividends holding, but so far Hatteras is showing the money. Margins are hard to calculate on REIT's, but even if skewwed, the 88% margins, 113% quarterly earning growth look tempting. The debt is rising, but no doubt securing additional mortgages. Looks like an interesting play.
