Summary
With the 10-year Treasury yield pushing above 4.55 percent and the 30-year bond crossing 5 percent, investors are questioning whether REIT dividends still compensate for the risk. Lucas and Luna drill into Realty Income (O), the net-lease giant with a 5.9 percent yield, and examine how its payout ratio, tenant concentration, and interest rate sensitivity stack up in mid-2026. They also look at broader REIT ETF data, compare the spread over Treasuries to historical averages, and debate whether 'bond proxy' is still a useful label. The episode unpacks one concrete decision: for an income investor today, does O's dividend offer enough cushion against a 5 percent risk-free alternative? #REITs #RealtyIncome #DividendInvesting #YieldSpreads #TreasuryYields #InterestRates #NetLease #IncomeStocks #DividendYield #PayoutRatio #O #VYM #SCHD #DVY #MarketUpdate #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
