A 13% Dividend Yield? Sure, I Can Buy That
This mortgage REIT changed its portfolio with the acquisition of Javelin Mortgage Investment. The use of non-agency RMBS creates a nice hedge against refinancing activity. The 13% yield represents a 10.78% yield on book value, which is still possible in the current interest rate environment.

The market has indiscriminately marked down the value of mediocre businesses and high-quality blue-chip stocks. Here are three such high-quality dividend growth stocks.

We've been hot on the monthly dividends trail in some of our most recent articles, and have come up with a few Canadian stocks which fill the bill, albeit with some currency exchange risk. This stock yields 10.73%, and has paid a steady monthly dividend since December 2012. It will benefit from rising interest rates, and has no Energy exposure. It's selling below book value, and also looks undervalued on a PEG basis...
