Smriti L. Popenoe, Co-CEO of Dynex Capital (NYSE: DX), breaks down what makes the company different from traditional REITs — and why its dividend yield, currently around 16.5 percent, is so notable. While most REITs invest in physical buildings, Dynex is a mortgage REIT, meaning it invests in the mortgages and mortgage-backed assets that finance those properties. These income-producing mortgage assets allow the company to deliver a high dividend payout to shareholders. Popenoe explains how Dynex structures its portfolio, manages risk, and generates income that supports one of the higher yields in the public markets today. If you’re curious how mortgage REITs operate — or how Dynex produces a double-digit dividend — this breakdown is a must-watch. ✅ Save this for later and follow for more CEO insights, REIT sector analysis, and dividend-focused investing content. #DynexCapital #SmritiPopenoe #MortgageREIT #REITInvesting 🖥️ Try Benzinga Pro FREE with a 14 day trial: https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register 📈 Take your trading to the next level with our suite of premium research services and tools: https://www.benzinga.com/services 🌐 Find more market-moving insights at https://www.benzinga.com — your one-stop destination for the latest financial news, data, and expert analysis to stay ahead of the markets. 📲 Follow us on socials @benzinga ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🔹Free Benzinga Webinars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQ2jOJNkDfI&list=PL4k0fH8EgI3YTdqniRmxrvz97w3IQ61rD 🔹Benzinga Pro Tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2FaHhLIrks&list=PL4k0fH8EgI3YMwoBMFXGvVMkgixFymmei&pp=gAQB 🔹Earnings Calls: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2-AoCw64Ok&list=PL4k0fH8EgI3buZI5529R53wJUNd9NS4_s 🔹Premarket Playbook: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4k0fH8EgI3ZVRPM7INpG--GvohnBVTnT 🔹Benzinga's All Access: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4k0fH8EgI3bQSn91atO-3lPT4V6Nwsmh 🔹Subscribe To The Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Benzinga ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ⚠️ Disclaimer: Investing in financial markets carries risk, and there are no guaranteed returns.
