Citi upgrades Invitation Homes, downgrades American Homes 4 Rent on valuation gap
--Citi upgraded Invitation Homes (NYSE:INVH) to Buy and downgraded American Homes (NYSE:AMH) 4 Rent to Neutral, citing relative valuation and expectations that Invitation Homes' earnings growth will soon catch up with its peer. Citi said the recent underperformance of INVH shares, about 6% behind American Homes since first-quarter results, has widened the valuation gap to an attractive entry point. INVH now trades at a roughly 30 basis point implied cap rate discount to AMH, which Citi sees as near the lower end of historical levels. 'We believe INVH is in a good position to assess these risks given its knowledge of BTR rents and valuations in the market,' the analysts wrote, adding that INVH's guidance appears more conservative and may beat expectations on occupancy and rent growth. Citi sees additional upside from INVH's new lending program, which could add 7 cents to annual earnings, about a 3.5% boost, over the medium term. The initiative also opens up more opportunities to acquire built-to-rent communities from homebuilders. Despite slower lease growth in recent months, Citi expects both INVH and AMH to grow rents at around 4% over the next few years. While AMH may have already peaked in new lease growth in May, the bank noted that differences in rent trends were modest and likely driven by methodology and market reaction to seasonality. Citi raised its price target on INVH to $38.50 from $35, implying a 4.8% cap rate and a 19x multiple on 2026 core FFO. It maintained a $41 target for AMH, equating to a 4.7% cap rate and a 21x multiple. We continue to like the single-family rental sector overall, Citi said, but sees greater upside in INVH due to potential earnings reacceleration and a return to more typical relative valuation.

Why Nucor Stock Jumped 10% This Week
New tariffs could drive steel prices higher. Nucor has invested billions to grow its earnings power. The steel company should see a surge in free cash flow as capital projects ramp up operations. 10 stocks we like better than Nucor › Not every investor wants to invest in a cyclical sector. But it can be an important addition to a well-diversified portfolio. Nucor (NYSE: NUE) is the largest pure-play steel and steel products company in North America. While it is most commonly thought of as more of an income stock than a growth stock, shares popped as much as nearly 12% at one point this week. The stock has now moved off a three-year low it hit in early April. That was aided by the 10% surge it has made this week as of early Friday morning, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. This week's move came after President Donald Trump announced the doubling of steel tariffs to 50% and officially implemented that raised level on June 4. That could be a meaningful move for the leading domestic steel company. Nucor has poured more than $10 billion into growth investments over the past five years. Many of those projects are just beginning to contribute to earnings. Two important projects will also begin ramping up operations later this year. Its largest current project -- a new greenfield sheet mill in West Virginia -- is expected to complete construction by the end of next year. That makes it a good time to look at an investment in Nucor. It looks to be near the bottom of a free-cash-flow cycle with capital spending beginning to decrease in coming years as those investments start generating revenue. Nucor generated over $8 billion in free cash flow in 2022 and another $5 billion in 2023. It dropped to negative $495 million in the first quarter, though. That could mark a point close to the bottom if the U.S. economy continues to grow. The tariffs supporting steel prices will only reinforce the strength in Nucor's business. Investors may be sensing a turn for this cyclical stock with the tariff catalyst. That helps explain the outsize move in Nucor stock this week.

Templeton Dragon Fund, Inc. ("TDF") Announces Distribution
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., June 06, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Templeton Dragon Fund, Inc. (NYSE: TDF) today announced a quarterly distribution from net investment income of $0.10 per share, payable on June 30, 2025, to shareholders of record on June 16, 2025 (Ex-Dividend Date: June 16, 2025). The Fund's Board of Trustees (the "Board") has authorized a Managed Distribution Plan (the "Plan"), under which the Fund will make quarterly distributions to shareholders at a fixed rate of $0.10 per share. The Plan aims to provide shareholders with consistent quarterly distributions derived from ordinary income and short-term capital gains generated by the Fund's investment portfolio. Additionally, the Plan seeks to narrow the discount between the market price and the net asset value ("NAV") of the Fund's common shares, although success in this regard cannot be guaranteed. In the event that sufficient distributable income is not available on a quarterly basis, the Fund will distribute long-term capital gains and/or return of capital to maintain its managed distribution rate. A return of capital may occur when some or all of the invested capital is paid back to shareholders. It is important to note that a return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with "yield" or "income." Even if the Fund realizes capital gains in the current year, such gains may be offset, in whole or in part, by the Fund's capital loss carryovers from prior years. The Board may amend the terms of the Plan or terminate the Plan at any time without prior notice to the Fund's shareholders. The amendment or termination of the Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's common shares. The Plan will be subject to periodic review by the Board, including a yearly review of the fixed rate to determine if an adjustment should be made. Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of the current distribution or from the terms of the Plan. The amounts and sources of distributions reported herein are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send a Form 1099-DIV to shareholders for the calendar year that will describe how to report the Fund's distributions for federal income tax purposes.
