Reason
As previously reported, RBC Capital analyst Kenneth Lee downgraded Chimera to Sector Perform from Outperform with a price target of $13, up from $6, as the firm sees Chimera generating "much lower" ROE in 2026 compared to other mortgage REITs it covers and sees better relative value elsewhere in the analyst's coverage. While the firm likes the direction Chimera is taking by diversifying its revenue streams and business model, it notes that its updated model anticipates Chimera generates 2026 EAD ROE of 9.5%, which it calls "much lower" than the mid/high-teens range ROE for agency-skewed MREITs in its coverage.
