Starwood Property Trust Inc (STWD) News

Not allowing investors to pull all their funds. Danger Danger!!!

I am can't add to my IRAs because I am retired and do not have income from a job. I do have this one in my Roth IRA, but would not hesitate to buy it in any portfolio. I understand the tax consequences, but do not pay my taxes out of any dividend income, so the old rule of 72 still applies.

That is why you should probably own this stock in an IRA or 401k. No taxes until withdrawal, and dividend is 3 or 4 times the amount you are required to withdraw at, I believe, age 73. Also if you reinvest at the current dividend rate, in a retirement account, you will double your investment in only 6 years.

Going back up to $25 with ease!! All aboard, seat belts please.

Has the dividend been cut or any chance it could happen

Bummer

Sweet loaded @ $10

Just loaded here @$17.

The dividends are taxed as income when they are paid. If they are used to buy stock and the stock appreciates in value and is then sold, those gains are taxed as capital gains. Hope this helps.

Does anyone here know if the dividends qualify to be taxes as capital gains if the dividends are automatically reinvested in stock shares. It’s called a DRIP plan if the company’s dividends qualify for automatic reinvestment in the company’s stock.

Agreed. Feel like it should be north of 25 though.

So have I. I don't think we will get rich on this stock, but the dividend is attractive.

Been buying this last week.

GREENWICH, Conn., Jan. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Starwood Property Trust, Inc. (NYSE: STWD) today announced that its Board of Directors has formally declared the distribution of common shares of Starwood Waypoint Residential Trust ("Starwood Waypoint"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Starwood Property Trust. The distribution will complete the spin-off of Starwood Waypoint from Starwood Property Trust. Following the distribution, Starwood Waypoint will be an independent, publicly-traded real estate investment trust ("REIT") primarily focused on investing in U.S. single-family rental homes and non-performing residential mortgage loans.

The distribution will be made on or about January 31, 2014 (the "Distribution Date") to Starwood Property Trust stockholders of record ("STWD Record Holders") as of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 24, 2014 (the "Record Date").

On the Distribution Date, Starwood Property Trust will distribute all of the Starwood Waypoint common shares to STWD Record Holders. Each STWD Record Holder will receive one Starwood Waypoint common share for every five shares of Starwood Property Trust common stock held on the Record Date. STWD Record Holders are not required to take any action to receive Starwood Waypoint common shares in the distribution, and they will not be required to surrender or exchange their Starwood Property Trust shares. On the first trading day after the Distribution Date, February 3, 2014, Starwood Property Trust's shares of common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "STWD," and Starwood Waypoint's common shares will commence trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "SWAY."

The distribution remains subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") declaring effective Starwood Waypoint's registration statement on Form 10, which Starwood Property Trust expects to occur in the coming days.
A presentation containing more information regarding the spin-off of Starwood Waypoint will be available on Starwood Property Trust's website, www.starwoodpropertytrust.com, in the "Investor Relations" Section.

Trading Before the Distribution Date

The New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") has informed Starwood Property Trust that, in connection with the spin-off, there will be three trading markets expected to begin on January 22 and to continue through and including January 31, 2014:
In the "regular way" market (NYSE: STWD), shares of Starwood Property Trust common stock will trade with the right to the Starwood Waypoint common shares distributed on the Distribution Date.

In the "when-issued" market (NYSE: SWAY WI), the right to the Starwood Waypoint common shares distributed on the Distribution Date will trade.
