Key risks (from latest filing)

["Interest rate fluctuations directly impact the value of mortgage-backed securities portfolio and net interest income margins, creating significant mark-to-market and reinvestment risks.","Heavy reliance on repurchase agreement financing (85+ billion in liabilities) creates funding and counterparty credit risks if repo markets experience stress or haircuts increase.","Regulatory changes including potential modifications to REIT tax qualification rules, CFTC commodity pool operator requirements, and mortgage servicing regulations could impact business structure and profitability."]
