principal-only strip

A version of a stripped mortgage-backed security which has cash flows that are based entirely on the monthly principal payments received from a mortgage pool. Investors tend to buy principal-only strips when they suspect that interest rates are about to decline, because the principal will be paid at a faster rate.
