Risks Remain Prevalent For Mortgage REITs
Image shown: Mortgage REITs have held up better than master limited partnerships (MLPs) since mid-2015, but they haven't exactly done well. For income investors, they may be the lesser of the two pain areas, but we're still not really excited about them.The mortgage REIT space remains inherently risky as it is sensitive to difficult to predict mortgage markets, and many in the group employ significant leverage to augment net interest margins. We prefer more diversified plays on income, and while we dig deep into mREITs in this piece, we think caution is still very much in order.

Consider Selling Discipline = Systematic, Forward-looking, Repeatable
Image shown: An illustration of Valuentum's call on Kinder Morgan during 2015. You can read about this in more detail in the Preface of Value Trap: Theory of Universal Valuation. For a consider-selling discipline to be successful, it must be systematic, forward-looking and repeatable. The Valuentum process worked equally well with General Electric during 2017 (image later in note).  No changes to simulated newsletter portfolios.
