Annaly Capital Management has exceeded its dividend payout with earnings available for distribution (EAD) for nine consecutive quarters, supporting two recent dividend increases. The mortgage REIT's 12.5%+ yield is sustainable due to its scale, diversification across Agency MBS, residential credit, and mortgage servicing rights, and strong returns on new investments ranging from 11-16% depending on asset class.

Annaly Capital Management and Starwood Property Trust are two mortgage REITs offering double-digit yields (12.5% and 11.6% respectively). Annaly is deemed the safer income play due to its growing earnings that support recent dividend increases, while Starwood, despite never cutting its dividend in 17 years, currently has distributable earnings below its dividend payout. However, Starwood expects improved coverage from its Fundamental Income Properties acquisition.

Annaly Capital, a mortgage REIT, offers an attractive 13% dividend yield but faces significant risks. The company covered its Q1 2026 dividend with a 92% payout ratio, but rising oil prices and potential Federal Reserve rate hikes could pressure earnings and dividend sustainability. mREITs are vulnerable to interest rate increases due to their reliance on short-term financing, making Annaly's dividend history volatile and unreliable for income-focused investors.

New Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh held his first FOMC meeting with rates held steady at 3.5%-3.75%, signaling a shift toward potential rate increases rather than cuts. This creates near-term headwinds for mortgage REITs like AGNC and Annaly Capital through declining tangible net book value, but could benefit them longer-term as new investments yield higher returns. Warsh's plans to shrink the Fed's balance sheet and examine its operations may widen mortgage security spreads, pressuring valuations initially but improving future profitability.

Three dividend-paying stocks—Annaly Capital Management (NLY), Casey's General Stores (CASY), and Target (TGT)—have recently announced significant dividend increases. Annaly offers a 13.5% yield with a 7% dividend hike but carries leverage risk. Casey's delivered strong earnings with a 14% dividend increase and 50% YTD returns, though its yield remains low at 0.3%. Target, recovering under new leadership with 30% YTD gains, announced a modest 2% dividend increase while maintaining a 3.5% yield and 54-year dividend growth streak.

Annaly Capital Management, a residential mortgage REIT, is increasing its quarterly dividend by 7.1% to $0.75 per share, boosting its forward yield to 13.6%. The dividend raise follows improving earnings and reflects strong performance from the company's diversified housing finance portfolio, which includes Agency MBS, residential credit, and mortgage servicing rights. While the REIT offers attractive income for risk-tolerant investors, it carries higher risk due to past dividend cuts.

Annaly Capital and AGNC Investment are mortgage REITs offering double-digit yields (12.9% and 13.9% respectively), but both have volatile dividend histories making them unsuitable for income-focused investors. However, investors prioritizing total return have seen performance comparable to the S&P 500. AGNC focuses exclusively on agency mortgage securities, while Annaly offers more diversification through residential credit and mortgage servicing businesses. Choice between them depends on diversification preferences rather than dividend reliability.

Annaly Capital, a mortgage REIT with a 12.8% dividend yield, recently increased its dividend but is not a reliable income stock for investors seeking stable dividend payments. While the company has delivered strong total returns since its IPO, its dividend history shows dramatic fluctuations, making it unsuitable for those dependent on consistent income. The stock is better suited for total return investors who can reinvest dividends rather than those seeking reliable income streams.

The author argues that Main Street Capital (MAIN), a business development company, is a superior investment to Annaly Capital (NLY), a mortgage REIT. While Annaly offers a high 12% dividend yield, it has repeatedly cut dividends and its stock price has fallen 40% over the past decade. Main Street Capital, by contrast, has never cut its monthly dividend, has increased it 136% since its 2007 IPO, and has delivered a 360% total return over 10 years compared to Annaly's 100%, making it a better choice for income and growth.
