Well, so far since I put CIM into dividend reinvestment, it has done fairly well. In one account I bought 400 shares and now have just over 456 shares.
This works out to about 14% increase in number of shares, and the price per share has gone up, albeit not all that much, but with the share price increase I am up over 24%. True, it isn't a two-fer, but it is much better than a CD from my local bank.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing.
Risk is probably my other middle name and I challenge myself daily in that area.
At least 90% of my investable cash (stocks, specifically) is invested in higher yield stocks. I'm 78, in fantastic health and without debt weighing me down other than for margin utilization which I always cover with cash on hand and readily available with the flip of a switch.
Passive income with current investments comes to $70,500/yr. However, I ordinarily strongly outperform passive income via trading---no day trades, however.
I've been very fortunate, no question about it.
Still, CIM is fun because it's so damned boring yet sustainable and rewarding for holders.
