The Panic-Proof Portfolio (Stockchase Research) New Residential Investment Corp. NRZ-N TOP PICK Feb 01, 2022

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Following its recent acquisition, this $4.9b REIT is again reiterated as a TOP PICK. This will place the company in an even more diversified portfolio that will be well positioned to weather various interest rate trends. It trades at a 8x earnings, compared to peers at 11x and is valued just under book value. Last earnings beat analyst expectations by 25% and the company is managing a ROE over 13%. It pays a sizable dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 75% of cash flow. We continue to recommend a tight stop at $10.00, looking to achieve $12.75 -- upside potential of 18%. Yield 9.65% (Analysts’ price target is $12.72)
$10.675
