Mike, the fact that the 10% dividend represents 90% of their eps, by law. And that they are leveraged out the wazoo. And that the real estate market and the dividend depend, as stock prices do, on consumers and cos going ever deeper into debt.

That doesn't mean that Reits can't be good investments and the folks who run Crescent have some nice properties. But, remember, all that Texas investment in the face of a weak oil and a weak cattle market may not be wise right now.
