REITs or real estate investment trusts have been around since 1960. REITs allow investors to invest in real estate without direct ownership. This investment vehicle can be simple or incredibly complicated. Many people are attracted to the high current dividends. There can also be an illusion of safety because the mortgages used in some REITs are back by the US Government. In today's show, I discuss the opportunities REITs offer. Plus, I discuss the downside too. Investors can learn a lot from the market crash in mortgage-backed REITs that began with the Coronavirus market crash between February and March of 2020. Some mREITs have not rebounded.

Today's discussion includes Annaly Capital Management, Starwood Property Trust, AGNC Investment Corp., Two Harbors Investment, and PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust.
