This “Dividend Trade Of The Decade” Crushes Stocks, Drops 28%+ Payout Hikes
We aren’t falling for this “head fake” oil plunge. Instead we’re buying what I like to call the “Biden barrel discount”— grabbing beaten-down oil stocks with surging dividends! I’ll drop two tickers primed to ride oil’s next bounce higher in a second. First, though, here’s what I mean by the “Biden barrel discount”: Sure, oil has pulled […]
4 Great REITs For The Rest Of 2022 And Beyond
REITs (real estate investment trusts) are still delivering roughly twice the income of the broader market. And that’s just the sector average. Four highly profitable REITs in particular are yielding 4% and up today. We’ll discuss them in a moment. Interest rates are rising, and “common wisdom” says it’s a bad time to buy REITs because they behave […]
5 Discounted Monthly Dividends Paying Up To 11.4%
Every legendary investor worth their salt has some sort of phrase to describe what investors should be doing right this very minute. “Be fearful when others are greedy, be greedy when others are fearful.” “Buy when there’s blood in the streets.” Largely speaking, most stocks on the market are on sale to some extent.

How To Buy The Right Dividends In 2022 (For 53%+ Upside)
The last time the Federal Reserve tried to taper its money-printing ways, the S&P 500 dropped 20% in 11 weeks. I’m not sure if the sequel is going to be any kinder to “America’s ticker,” the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY). It’s time to prepare. The best time to sell speculative, profitless positions was last week.

3 Punchy Preferred Funds Yielding 6.2%-6.9%
Most income investors limit themselves to mere “common” dividends. But there’s no need for us to settle for 2% blue-chip yields when we can bank 6%+ payouts from the same companies. Let’s use Bank of America (BAC) as our example. The stock should keep sailing as the 10-year Treasury rate grinds higher. Common shares of BAC yield […]
