Thanks for your comments.  I am always looking for a good low priced =
stock, but I was concerned about this being a mortgage backed REIT. =20

I think that I will keep looking.  By the way I appreciate your weekend =
review.  I don't have a lot of time to do research so I often use your =
watchlist to narrow my search.

Thanks again,

Matt

  Hi Matt,

  I got burned a number of years ago on a mortgage backed REIT, and =
learned my lesson. As a result, I won't consider them for growth =
oriented investment. I see that MFA currently has a yield of 12.7%, no =
doubt in my mind that is what is driving it. But with rates about as low =
as they are likely to get, and even more likely to start up in the =
future, even the fact that this company's mortgages are adjustables =
means that it will not keep up with rising rates.

  I would aqree that it appears to be forming a c&h, but the handle is =
high, up/down ratio is only 1.1, and the trailing PE (9) says that there =
is little interest in pricing it at a premium. This is also reflected in =
the RS of 72, below CANSLIM standards.=20

  It does have good earnings forecasts, but would not interest me.

    I would like to get some thoughts on this stock.  America First =
Mortgage Investments, Inc., is a REIT and is in the business of =
investing in mortgage-backed securities and mortgages.

    It appears to me using IBD Chart that there is a C&H formation =
beginning on around the first of October.  It looks like a handle is now =
forming.=20

    I will appreciate any thoughts.

    Thanks,

    Matt Leverette =20
