Mid-America Apartment: Rental Pressures Limit Upside

  • MAA shares have underperformed due to persistent supply and demand headwinds, with muted rental inflation and higher-for-longer interest rates weighing on the sector. Supply pressures are easing as new construction slows, but demand remains soft, leading to weaker revenue growth and a cautious near-term rental outlook. MAA's strong balance sheet and financial flexibility position it well for market slumps, supporting its secure 4.3% dividend and potential for opportunistic acquisitions.

3-Bucket System For $5,000 Monthly Income, For Early Retirees

  • The S&P 500 provides a meager 1.2% yield, besides a roller-coaster ride on a regular basis. It may be a reasonably good investment for younger investors when they are in their prime accumulation phase. If you are a retiree or someone who depends on a regular income stream from your investment portfolio, the last thing you want is to worry about when to sell shares to raise income. We will present a balanced and highly diversified 3-bucket portfolio that is likely to provide 5% to 6% income and market-beating growth with lower volatility and less drawdowns. It will also provide $5,000 on a monthly basis on a $1 million capital.

If You Want $3,767 in Annual Income, Invest $25,000 in Each of High-Yield Dividends

  • Key Points With markets still volatile, keep your portfolio protected with high-yielding stocks. Look at real estate investment trusts (REIT), like Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities, for example. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) With markets still volatile, keep your portfolio protected with high-yielding stocks. Look at real estate investment trusts (REIT), like Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities (NYSE: MAA), for example. With a yield of just over 4%, Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities is an attractive, oversold opportunity. The REIT focuses on apartment communities in the Southeast, Southwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. MAA also declared a quarterly dividend of $1.515 per share, payable on July 31 to shareholders of record as of July 15. Even better, Goldman Sachs just added the MAA stock to its Conviction List with a price target of $192 a share. If you were to invest $25,000 in the Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities REIT, you’d take ownership of 167 shares. Using its current dividend of $1.515, you’d collect just over $253 a quarter. Annually, you’d collect $1,012 just by holding the Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities stock. Plus, with Mid-Atlantic Apartment Communities you gain exposure to renter households, which are growing faster than homeowner households. According to Barron’s: ā€œWith house prices still high, mortgage rates stuck just under 7%, and plenty of economic uncertainty, consumers are once again seeing the virtues of renting. Over a third of respondents, 35%, told Fannie Mae in April that they would rent instead of buy if they had to move, the highest share since October and more than the long-term average of three in 10.ā€ Here are three more apartment REITs you may want to consider. Camden Property Trust With a yield of about 3.6%, Camden Property Trust (NYSE: CPT) is one of the largest publicly traded multifamily companies in the United States. The company is primarily engaged in the ownership, management, development, redevelopment, acquisition, and construction of multifamily apartment communities. It also owns and operates 177 properties. In its most recent earnings report, the company’s Core funds from operations (FFO) of $1.72 beat by four cents. Revenue of $390.57 million, up 1.9% year over year, beat by $1.39 million. The company also declared a second-quarter dividend of $1.05 per share, payable on July 17 to shareholders of record as of June 30. If you were to invest $25,000 in CPT, you’d take ownership of 215 shares. Using its current dividend of $1.05 per share, you’d collect a quarterly dividend of $225.75. Annually, you’d collect $903. Again, all you had to do was buy and hold the CPT stock. ā€œWe are pleased to report strong first quarter results, and a raise to our full-year 2025 earnings guidance,ā€ added Richard J. Campo, Camden’s Chairman and CEO. ā€œCore FFO exceeded the midpoint of our guidance by $0.04 per share in the first quarter, with $0.02 resulting from higher than anticipated revenues and the remaining $0.02 from lower interest expense and the timing of other income and expense categories. AvalonBay Communities With a yield of 3.36%, AvalonBay Communities (NYSE: AVB) invests in apartments. It also declared a quarterly dividend of $1.75 per share, payable on July 15 to shareholders of record as of June 30. If you were to invest $25,000 in AVB, you’d take ownership of 121 shares. Using its current quarterly dividend of $1.75, you’d collect $211.75 a quarter. Annually, you’d collect $847. Even better, analysts at Barclays, Scotiabank, and Morgan Stanley raised their price targets on the AVB stock. Morgan Stanley raised its price target to $228 with an equal-weight rating on the stock. Scotiabank raised its price target from $241 to $251. And Barclays raised its price target to $240 from $227. Equity Residential With a yield of 4.03%, Equity Residential (NYSE:EQR) is one of the largest multifamily REITs on the market. It has about 312 properties across the U.S., including 84,018 rental units. It just paid out a dividend of $0.6925 on April 17 to shareholders of record as of March 31. It’s also about to pay a quarterly dividend of $0.6925 on July 11 to shareholders of record as of June 24. If you were to invest $25,000 in EQR, you’d take ownership of 363 shares. Using EQR’s current dividend of $0.6925, you’d collect $251.37 a share quarterly. Annually, you’d collect about $1,005.48. Recent earnings were also healthy. In its most recent quarter, the company’s funds from operations (FFO) were in line at $1. Revenue of $766.78 million, up 5.4% year over year, beat by $11.85 million. ā€œCEO Mark Parrell highlighted that Equity Residential finished 2024 with ā€œsolid same-store revenue resultsā€ exceeding the midpoint of initial expectations, though bad debt improvement slowed in Q4. The company achieved same-store expense growth of 2.9% for 2024,ā€ added SeekingAlpha.com.

Why Monthly Dividend Stocks Are the Smartest Play in a High-Rate World

  • Key Points Monthly dividend stocks should be among your go-to investments in the current environment. They are trading at deep discounts ahead of potential interest rate cuts. Yield hunger could push them much higher. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) The current high interest cycle has been restrictive for much longer than many had expected two years earlier. Many people expected rate cuts to begin in 2023, but ā€œtransitoryā€ inflation kept lingering on and on. Even now, core inflation is not at 2%, but trends have shown that it is starting to cool faster than expected. Then, the recent tariff scare caused Wall Street to get rattled again, as many expected inflation to surge from double-digit tariffs. Thankfully, this did not happen. Suppliers took some of the burden, whereas companies managed to absorb some of the costs. The tariffs also came in with plenty of warning, so businesses were able to stockpile plenty of inventory and were able to wait it out before the tariff pause went into effect. Regardless of what you think about tariff policy, most people can agree that the impact on inflation hasn’t been as bad as previously thought. Recent macro figures coming in cooler have given investors confidence that the Federal Reserve will be able to make do on its promises of two rate cuts by the end of this year. All of that is great news for monthly dividend stocks. Here’s why. Higher Rates Allow You to Buy Dividend Stocks for Cheap You can buy monthly dividend stocks while everyone else focuses on Treasuries. When interest rates are high, so are Treasury yields. This, in turn, leads to lower investment in dividend stocks of all types, including monthly ones. It may look like a negative thing, and it is, but it gives bulls a great opportunity to go shopping for monthly dividend stocks at cheap prices. When interest rates inevitably go down and take down Treasury yields with them, the hunger for more yield kicks in. Investors have no option but to turn to dividend stocks, and the same stocks they’ve abandoned for Treasuries end up recovering significantly. REITs constitute one of the largest segments of dividend-paying stocks, and investors are underweight here. Interest in REITs is still low, comparable to levels seen in 2007/2008. Real estate has held strong despite the high interest rates, but fear is what’s mainly driving under-investment. No two recessions are the same, so any future downturn is unlikely to hit real estate as hard as it did in 2008. The industry has learned a lot from the Great Recession. You won’t find NINJA (No Income, No Job, and no Assets) loans anymore. If anything, borrowing is becoming increasingly challenging with AI-powered screening. Monthly Dividend Stocks Often Have Higher Yields Monthly dividend payers come with high payout ratios. Firms that pay dividends monthly are often Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Business Development Companies (BDCs). They characteristically have high dividend payout ratios. The monthly dividends are also often the primary reason behind investors buying and holding these stocks in the first place, so management has extra incentive to keep payouts steady regardless of the economic environment. Quality monthly payers combine investment-grade credit and conservative payout ratios, with decades-long dividend streaks. Wall Street is willing to pay a big premium for these traits, especially when yield hunger starts kicking in. They Also Compound Faster It adds up significantly in the long run. Dividends paid monthly can be reinvested much faster, hence they also compound faster. The difference may seem tiny in one or two years, but it quickly starts to add up and compound over decades. This is one of the biggest benefits of investing in dividend stocks that pay monthly. These stocks are perfect for a dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP) if your aim is to hold and let them compound for decades. Monthly Dividends Act as a Cushion During Downturns Twelve payouts a year are better than four. Another big plus is that you’re not going to have to wait for the next quarterly payout during a sudden downturn. Many investors don’t have enough free cash sitting around to fund both opportunistic buys and their lifestyle, especially if they lose their primary source of income in the said downturn. This can force them not only to miss out on these once-in-a-decade buying opportunities, but also to sell shares at cheap prices. Monthly dividend stocks can be your lifesaver in this case. If you have enough of them in your portfolio, you can either cover your own expenses or redirect some of those dividends into buying opportunities. Even if you leave those stocks to reinvest, they are going to reinvest at much lower prices and meaningfully boost your portfolio’s recovery. Finally, a Big Caveat to Keep In Mind Recessions will still hurt, so only buy monthly dividend stocks with quality underlying businesses. Recessions and downturns cause almost all stocks in the stock market to go down. There are often very few exceptions. You’ll have to weather these downturns no matter the sector you invest in. Fear causes BDCs and REITs to see bigger declines, even if nothing is fundamentally wrong. Moreover, recessions often hit when the interest rate plateaus and starts being cut. This is unlikely to be always the case, but dollar-cost averaging is a good remedy to this risk. Also, this isn’t a caveat that is exclusive to monthly dividend stocks. If anything, they should recover pretty quickly, since they already trade at deep discounts. For example, The Monthly Dividend Company, or Realty Income (NYSE:O) is down over 25% from pre-pandemic prices, despite a 5.6% dividend yield and solid financials.The post Why Monthly Dividend Stocks Are the Smartest Play in a High-Rate World appeared first on 24/7 Wall St..

Why I Will Never Retire

  • Retirement is often misunderstood; rather than a cliff, it should be an off-ramp to more meaningful, flexible work and personal fulfillment. Research shows that abrupt retirement can negatively impact health, purpose, and longevity; maintaining meaningful work and community is crucial. Financial independence should be about gaining the freedom to design a fulfilling life, not simply quitting work altogether.

Our data and reasoning suggest that a ā€œtipping pointā€ in the sector is imminent and that REIT investors will soon be able to ā€œfinallyā€ capitalize on a once-in-a-lifetime capital appreciation opportunity. We fully expect the inflation rate to resume its downtrend as the year progresses.

Mid-America Apartments: 2024 Will Be Tough, But Things Should Improve Beyond

  • Mid-America Apartment Communities is a high-quality apartment REIT with a strong balance sheet and a history of dividend increases. Short to medium-term prospects for MAA are likely to be disappointing due to oversupply in the Sunbelt residential market. However, in the long-term, there is potential for a supply/demand mismatch and a recovery in occupancy and pricing power for MAA.

Peering Into Mid-America Apartment's Recent Short Interest

  • Mid-America Apartment's MAA short percent of float has fallen 3.99% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.46 million shares sold short, which is 2.89% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.02 days to cover their short positions on average. Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. Short selling is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises. Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish. See Also: List of the most shorted stocks As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Mid-America Apartment has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted. Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis. According to Benzinga Pro, Mid-America Apartment's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.52%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers. Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.
