Two Harbors Investment Corp (TWO): Hybrid mREIT Diversifies Further

In contrast, Annaly Capital Management, Inc. (NYSE:NLY) reported multiple dividend cuts during the prior quarters. Annaly paid $2.44 per share during the full-year 2011, while it paid $2.05 per share during the full-year 2012. I am anticipating an annual dividend rate of $1.80 per share for the full-year 2013.

Conclusion

It is abundantly clear from the above thesis that diversification is the best strategy during the prevailing challenging times that are marked with ultra-low short-term interest rate and the Fed accelerated bond buying. Therefore, if you want to expand your regular income consider mREITs with diversified investment portfolios like Two Harbors.
