Ready Capital's preferred shares plunge amid high non-performing loans and dividend risks

Ready Capital, a commercial real estate REIT, faces severe financial distress with 37% of its loans non-performing. Its preferred shares trade at just 50 cents on the dollar, reflecting high risk of losses and potential suspension of dividends. Negative net interest income and a risky loan portfolio suggest ongoing value decline. Investors should avoid the preferred shares due to significant downside, though speculative investors might consider its 9% Senior Notes.
