Capital Trust, Inc. is a high-yielding company with a forward-looking price to earnings ratio of just 8.75 times next year’s projected earnings. With a recent ticker price of $33.95, Capital Trust, Inc. is ready for significant appreciation. The company’s operating profit margin is an impressive 65.91%. This results in an annual operating cash flow of $68.4M.

Capital Trust, Inc. is a cash cow that has a reasonably attractive valuation. With a beta of 0.67, the company is less risky than the stock market as a whole. This information is useful, but a more careful analysis of Capital Trust, Inc. reveals that the company’s risk profile is not as volatile as many of its competitors. It’s important to invest in a sufficiently liquid stock that money can be taken out of the position on every trading day and Capital Trust, Inc.’s total market capitalization of $592.7M is ample proof of such liquidity.
