Jefferies trimmed its price target on Chimera Investment Corp (NYSE: CIM) from $3.80 to $3.00,while maintaining a Hold rating.

The firm notes, "With limited opportunities for capital deployment in the near term and increasing headwinds from the re-REMIC residual book, we remain Hold rated on shares of CIM. Although we expect CIM to eventually be a significant player in the non-Agency new issuance market, over the near term we expect the optics from the subordinate portfolio to overshadow the company's long-term potential."
