Well, it looks like AGNC is stabilizing around $34, and given it's recent history, I wouldn't be surprised to see it start another up-leg to new highs. Sometimes the facts don't seem to matter (KOG is an excellent example today...and yes, I understand that one day does not make a market, but still...).

If they both have the same yield, CYS and AGNC, and one is 1.15 book and the other is 1.05, then the 1.15x book either has more leverage or higher yields, either of which equates to more risk. Agree with your thoughts.
