MFA Mortgage Investments (MFA)

CAPS Rating:
**

A real estate investment trust engaged in the business of investing, on a leveraged basis, in mortgage-backed securities.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Rate resets + reinvestment of prepays on the ARM portfolio, and releveraging should lead to huge increases in the dividend by 4Q06. A three cylinder engine.

MFA is a solidly run company. They have done well in relation to a mortgage investment company during this crisis. They are not going any where any time soon, so this makes it a prime time to buy this stock for a long term investment. When the housing markets goes back up, so will MFA.
