Is AGNC Investment's Stock a Buy?: https://g.foolcdn.com/editorial/images/735416/federal-reserve-building.jpg

Times are tough in the mortgage space right now. Rising interest rates led to a collapse in mortgage originations, and mortgage-backed securities have been out of favor among investors for the past 15 months or so. Mortgage real estate investment trusts (mREITs) were beset by declining asset values and have had to cut dividends. These factors explain mREITs' massive share price underperformance since the Fed started hiking rates last year.

Under these circumstances, is AGNC Investment (NASDAQ: AGNC) -- the best known mortgage REIT -- a buy?
