Annalys leverage is MUCH lower than peers

The negative effects of lower leverage Book value per share down 23% from 2012 to 2013

Interest income down 12% from 2012 to 2013 ButIt limits losses from interest rate riskOrThe loss of securities value due to rising interest rates And It gives Annaly HUGE buying powerOr Liquidity to seize opportunities as they arise 1. ValuationAssets Liabilities = Book Value

Annalys trading at a 8% discount to its book value Some of the discount is due to: Poor returns in 2013Future interest rate uncertaintyRecent dividend cuts

Though A 23% discount to its historic price-to-book value should compensate your uncertainty
