Go here to check it out - and be sure to let us know what you think! - James Ogletree, Managing Editor SAFETY NET Will History Repeat Itself for This 16% Yielder? Marc Lichtenfeld, Chief Income Strategist, The Oxford Club In June of 2022, I reviewed the dividend safety of Annaly Capital Management (NYSE: NLY). I warned investors, "If you own Annaly, expect another dividend cut within the next year or two." At the time, the quarterly dividend was $0.88 per share. Nine months later, it was lowered to $0.65. It stayed there through all of 2023 and 2024. Then, this year, it was raised to $0.70 in the first quarter. Now, with a juicy 16% yield, has Annaly turned the corner back toward dividend growth? Annaly Capital Management is a mortgage real estate investment trust, or REIT, that focuses on individual residences. It has an $81 billion portfolio that has financed more than 900,000 homes. SPONSORED Urgent: The Biggest Gold Bull Market in History Is Here Central banks are buying gold at record levels — the fastest pace in over 55 years. With inflation climbing and the Fed cutting rates, gold is set to skyrocket. Goldman Sachs predicts continued bullish momentum, while JP Morgan has dubbed this a "golden era for gold." One unique way to profit from this surge is through an under-$20 play that offers exposure to more than 1 oz of gold (worth over $3,000). Click here for urgent details — don't miss out. Net interest income is the cash flow metric that we look at for mortgage REITs. Annaly's is not good. It's been falling like a stock market in the face of new tariffs (too soon?). View larger image   Last year, net interest income rose to $248 million from -$111 million the year before. But that was still a fraction of the nearly $1.5 billion the company made in 2022. This year, net interest income is expected to be nearly cut in half to $130 million. With cash flow falling (and expected to keep falling), Annaly's Safety Net scorecard is not off to a strong start. Is there anything that can salvage its mouthwatering 16% yield? Click Here to Finish Reading BUILD AND PROTECT YOUR WEALTH Top Trader Reveals "One Ticker Payouts": One Ticker... One Trade...
