Telefonica: Lowering Price Target After Q1'25 (Rating Downgrade) — Neutral

TEF   Seeking Alpha — May 16, 2025

I've exited my Telefonica position after years of solid returns, as the stock nears my $5/share price target and upside looks limited. Despite decent 1Q25 results and strong brands like VIVO and O2, organic revenue and B2C sales are showing negative trends. While Telefonica is meeting its own 2025 targets, negative free cash flow and rising churn in core markets concern me.

Bluerock Homes Trust: Encouraging Developments (Rating Upgrade) — Positive

BHM   Seeking Alpha — May 16, 2025

Bluerock Homes Trust's stock has sharply underperformed both the real estate sector and the S&P 500 YTD. But there are encouraging signs for the stock now. The company's revenue growth remains solid, with increases in average rent per occupied unit and higher occupancy rates.

ARMOUR Residential REIT: Hold, A High Yield In A Risky Environment — Negative

ARR   Seeking Alpha — May 16, 2025

I recommend a hold on ARR due to its attractive dividend yield balanced by risks from interest rate uncertainty and high leverage. Dividend coverage appears adequate short-term, but discrepancies between GAAP and non-GAAP earnings raise long-term sustainability concerns. ARR's financial performance is hindered by high leverage and interest rate sensitivity, limiting growth and increasing risk in current conditions.
