“Agency mortgage valuations improved during the third quarter as interest rate volatility declined and the yield curve steepened in connection with the Federal Reserve’s decision to begin easing monetary policy. In this macroeconomic environment, our higher coupon Agency RMBS investments outperformed, contributing to a 1.1% increase in book value per common share to $9.37. Combined with our $0.40 common stock dividend, this resulted in an economic return of 5.4% for the quarter. As of October 31, 2024, our book value per common share is estimated to be between $8.42 and $8.76,” said John Anzalone, Chief Executive Officer.
