Tiny Stocks, Tremendous Yields: 5 Small Caps Yielding Up To 13.8%
Small-cap stocks are on sale. We can buy select names for just 8.8 times earnings and 83% of book value. Large cap stocks rarely sell this cheap. That is the problem with popularity!

No Rate Cuts In ’24? I’m Not Buying It (Here’s Why And How To Profit)
We’ve got a great shot at locking in big yields—and big dividend growth—on utility stocks. But we need to buy now, before rates start their (inevitable) decline. I’ve got three “growth utilities”—boasting fast-growing businesses and dividends—for us to play this opportunity with below. Best part is, thanks to their healthy balance sheets, these three have a built-in “buffer” if […]

This Lame Stock Advice Could Cost You 8% Dividends (And Millions In Gains)
When I see people touting the 60/40 portfolio, I kind of feel like Haley Joel Osment’s character in the Sixth Sense. But instead of seeing dead people, I see dead ideas. You likely know what I’m talking about: a portfolio that seeks to automatically balance risk by holding 60% in stocks and 40% in bonds. It […]
Did You Miss The Rally? 5 Still-Cheap Dividends Up To 12.3%
Mr. and Ms. Market are manic. Always have been, always will be. My fellow contrarian, they reminded us of this fact yet again. Fortunately we were zigging while the broader crowd was zagging. The herd’s “FOMO panic” last week pushed many of our stocks higher. Vanilla investors covered their ill-timed short positions and scrambled to buy bargains. Like the dividend […]
