(Market Call Minute.) Interesting company. Just did an acquisition of Exceed Mortgage Corp. the nice thing about it is that if you want dividend income, they have a yield of around 10%. Tweet finance |

Mortgage Investment Corporation (or a MIC) and to qualify, they have to pay out all their profits each year so they don’t retain any of their profits. You don’t get any growth in retained earnings. 7.9% yield is all you get. Really like buying a high-yield bond. He is shooting for more than 8% for his clients.. Tweet finance |

Shorting Canadian housing with Home Capital Group (HCG-T,) and Genworth MI Canada (MIC-T). Is a little bit early but he has seen the housing bubble build and believes it has now peaked and is now on the downside. If right and Canadian housing prices fall 20%-30% over the next 2 years, then these companies are not going to just be at risk of earnings but also at risk of solvency. Tweet finance |

Loan to values are quite conservative because of Canadian laws. There is headline risk. Stick with it but don't add to it. Prefers HCG-T Tweet finance |

(A SHORT) Primarily subprime mortgage lender almost solely focused on single-family housing. Looking at the housing market data starting with Vancouver and the Toronto condo market, which is now spreading into single-family market elsewhere, you are seeing sales down and listings up. Looks like Phoenix and Florida circa 2006 to him. You are going to start to see inventory build dramatically over the next 6 months and then you start to see prices really fall. Thinks there is 20%-30% downside. Tweet finance |

Has about $250 million of market cap but nobody covers it. About 68% payout ratio. Lends to people who do not qualify for their own private mortgages as well as host construction. Good spread of about 7%. Low payout ratio. Yield of well over 7% and give an extra bonus at the end of the year if they've done well. Tweet finance |

A momentum play, near all time high. Not his kind of company though. Tweet finance |

Well run company. Bought a lot of mortgage portfolios last year and did very well, but will not quite as well this year. They are like an income trust in that they have to pay out 100% of their profits. Won’t get a huge growth in the company. Usually have a top-up dividend in the 4th quarter. Solid company.

A good solid buy. They bought distressed portfolios. Had 6 or 7 profitable quarters that were exaggeratedly good. It’s at a good level now. Tweet finance |

Mortgages. This is in a unique category in the Canadian tax code and have to dividend out 100% of their profits but are not taxed as income trust. Their status does not change in 2011. 8.2% dividend yield, which will probably be topped up at the end of the year. Tweet finance |
