The current interest rate hike cycle benefits floating-rate lenders like ACRE, which gains about $1.4 million in net income for every 50 basis points increase in SOFR. Meanwhile, PDI, offering exposure to non-agency mortgages and high-yield credit, trades at a rare 7% discount to its net asset value, presenting a buying opportunity. Investors are advised to buy ACRE for its dividend recovery potential and accumulate PDI to capture double-digit cash flow at a discount. This strategy exploits rate-driven mispricings amid the Federal Reserve's rate hikes, aiming for sustainable high income.
