Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 32 days.
The thesis — published December 15, 2025
Dynex is a mortgage-focused company that pays a big dividend (about 14.6%), so income-focused buyers may be interested if interest rates calm. The stock looks beaten down, which can attract a rebound, but short-term price action is still weak and the business uses a lot of borrowed money, so big rate moves can quickly hurt the payout and share price. Start cautiously.
Primary drivers
- Big dividend yield could bring buyers looking for income
- Price is very beaten down, so a rebound is possible
- Heavy use of borrowed money makes it sensitive to rate moves
- Wait for clearer price improvement before increasing size
