This is just silly. I bought RAS when it had a dividend yield of 14%. Now it's at 35%, with a p/e of 5.3 and positive earnings growth. Why wouldn't everybody want a stock with those numbers?

(This is how I keep my spirits up: the size of my portfolio may be going down, but my dividend yield percentages are way up! Yay!)

I generally avoid real estate-related investments because I live in a counter-cyclical place and don't have a good feel for the situation on the ground, but my understanding is that the real estate market is still reasonably solid, so I can't see how this panic, with people running from any investment which has "mortgage" or "real estate" in its name, makes any sense.
