UPDATE: Stifel Nicolaus Increases Target to $22 on AG Mortgage Investment Trust

Stifel Nicolaus lowers its target on Buy-rated AG Mortgage Investment Trust MITT to $22 from $20, as sustained dividends outweigh modest quarterly EPS miss. Stifel Nicolaus says, "With conservative leverage, a conservative approach to credit, and a portfolio skewed toward agency MBS we find the stock attractive and view the 70c dividend as sustainable. Earnings were a bit disappointing, but we see ongoing earnings power as broadly consistent with sector averages and generally solid." MITT closed at $20.12 a share on Thursday.
