Market volatility has increased, making it challenging to predict future Treasury rates and impacting the frequency of my article publications. Price-to-book ratios reveal bargains. Preferred shares offer lower risk and high yields; recent trades in DX-C and EFC-B have been profitable.

CIMN, a senior unsecured note from Chimera, experienced a -4% drawdown, outperforming the company's preferred equity and other mREIT bonds during recent market turmoil. Its performance aligned with expectations based on BB high-yield spreads, demonstrating its resilience and predictable behavior in volatile markets. Despite being rated BBB by Egan-Jones, CIMN trades as high-yield debt, with a 9% coupon reflecting market perception.

I advised investing in preferred stocks and baby bonds in mid-2022, predicting the Fed's rate hikes and subsequent cuts, resulting in significant returns. Preferred stocks have dropped recently due to inflation fears and panic selling, creating opportunities to buy high-yielding securities at discounted prices. I'm adding to my holdings in preferred stocks like CIM-PC and CIM-PD, anticipating future gains as valuations return to par.

Chimera (CIM) witnessed a jump in share price last session on above-average trading volume. The latest trend in earnings estimate revisions for the stock doesn't suggest further strength down the road.

Floating rate preferreds, initially created in a zero interest rate environment, now yield around 10% due to the timing phenomenon and changes in interest rates. Key factors for analysis include company stability, size of preferred issue relative to common equity, discount/premium to par value, and adjustment above SOFR. Risks include rapid yield curve fluctuations and potential Fed rate cuts, which could lower SOFR and subsequently reduce yields on floating rate preferreds.
