chasing $NLY. Can't help myselfI am buying some NYSE:NLY , even though the stock is very overbought in the short term (see Money Flow Indicator at bottom of chart). I like the breakout through the dotted line connecting the highs from Oct 10 and Nov 17. After breaking through this morning the stock pulled back underneath the dotted line, but has now recaptured the high.
I believe that the macro environment supports the idea that the lows may be in for the mortgage REITs. This one trades at roughly 1x book value, while offering a 14%+ dividend. The timing might not be ideal on short time scale (again, it's overbought) but this is intended to be a long-term hold and I don't want NYSE:NLY to completely get away from me.
