Over the past month, I’ve been trying out a new feature in my premium newsletter, High-Yield Investing. While past issues have introduced income stocks that simply beat the market’s average yield, or even double or triple it, this new section is different.  This is for investors looking for really high yields — those north of 10%. Sure, the quality of these names may differ — and they may or may not merit inclusion into the newsletter’s portfolio. But my mission is clear: to identify as many opportunities in the high-yield market as possible. —Sponsored Link— Step… Read More

I’ve been around insurance companies most of my professional life. Of course, it helps that I think insurance is interesting. I mean, have you ever read a policy that indemnified and insured for causes of loss to satellites in space? Or policies covering jumbo jet aircraft? They’re simply amazing. Now, one of the things I learned early on is that well-run insurance companies have a common denominator. It’s a simple concept: profitable insurers receive more in premiums than they pay out in claims.  Seems easy, right? #-ad_banner-#But in the real world, it isn’t as easy as it sounds.

I’ve been around insurance companies most of my professional life. Of course, it helps that I think insurance is interesting. I mean, have you ever read a policy that indemnified and insured for causes of loss to satellites in space? Or policies covering jumbo jet aircraft? They’re simply amazing. Now, one of the things I learned early on is that well-run insurance companies have a common denominator. It’s a simple concept: profitable insurers receive more in premiums than they pay out in claims.  Seems easy, right? #-ad_banner-#But in the real world, it isn’t as easy as it sounds. You see, insurance pricing is cyclical. Prices go up and down with the changing levels of supply and demand in the market. This is especially true after hurricanes and other large loss events. These large losses force many insurers to flee the market until they can build up their loss reserves. But that leads customers to lose faith in an insurer, making any future return to the market more difficult. That’s why it’s so important for insurers to underwrite their policies profitably every time.  To do this, insurers look at two metrics to calculate profitability. The first is their expense ratio. This… Read More

Warren Buffett is the most successful investor of all time. His net worth of $81 billion makes him one of the richest people in the world. As is well known, the secret to his success is long-term, “buy and hold” investing. Buffett says that when he invests in a stock his goal is to own it “forever.” Investors looking to succeed in the stock market would be smart to follow his lead. However, in 2017, stocks worth holding forever seem impossible to find. That’s because the economy is evolving faster than ever. According to a recent… Read More

Warren Buffett is the most successful investor of all time. His net worth of $81 billion makes him one of the richest people in the world. As is well known, the secret to his success is long-term, “buy and hold” investing. Buffett says that when he invests in a stock his goal is to own it “forever.” Investors looking to succeed in the stock market would be smart to follow his lead. However, in 2017, stocks worth holding forever seem impossible to find. That’s because the economy is evolving faster than ever. According to a recent study from financial services firm Credit Suisse, the lifespan of S&P 500 companies has been falling for the last 70 years. #-ad_banner-#Back in 1950, the average age of an S&P 500 company was 60 years. In 1965, it had fallen to 33 years. By 1990, it was just 20. According to market-research firm Innosight, around 50% of the S&P 500 will be replaced in the next 10 years. This high turnover rate in the market makes it more difficult than ever for investors to invest like Buffett. But I’ve got a solution: Utilities are the perfect “forever stocks.” At first… Read More

Earning high, consistent dividends is the aim of every income investor. This goal, however, has become nearly impossible in today’s market, largely thanks to persistently low rates and the hoards of investors trying to squeeze every penny of growth out of shares.  My research has identified seven stocks with varying degrees of risk that are still regularly shelling out sizeable income. Consider the following securities for your income portfolio. 1. Omega Healthcare Investors (NYSE: OHI) Sometimes everything lines up to create an ideal investment.

Boasting a $9 billion-plus portfolio of over 975 units, the company has increased its dividend fifteen years in a row. A P/E of just under 18 and five-year EPS growth in excess of 7% sweeten the deal. #-ad_banner-#​OHI’s future is looking bright as well. Nearly 15% of the U.S. population is 65 years of age or older.

Even as stocks reach record highs, there’s a growing sense of fear among investors that the market is setting up for a drop. The S&P 500 has surged 20% over the past year, taking stocks to 31 times cyclically-adjusted earnings despite a lackluster economic backdrop and a Federal Reserve that’s withdrawing monetary stimulus. Professional money managers have been slowly moving to cash, with Bank of America’s fund manager survey showing cash positions at highs not seen since 2001.  I’ve had a back-and-forth conversation with a financial advisor friend for the past several months.

The nearly nine-year bull market defies any kind of rational portfolio investing based on fundamentals but is still just as strong as it has been since 2009. The anxiety has gotten so bad that my friend has 40% of managed money in cash, and clients aren’t too happy that they might be missing out. But there may be a way to protect your portfolio and still earn a return on your money. I researched different asset classes for correlations with stocks and performance over the previous two bear markets. What I found were two investments classes with solid cash yields and that may… Read More

Running out of money is a genuine fear for everyone, no matter their age or income. During our working years, this anxiety is quieted by a steady cash flow, allowing us to build a “just in case” fund for unexpected expenses and, hopefully, a retirement fund.

Because when you get to retirement age, that steady paycheck stops and money anxiety creeps in again.  Many investors turn to the stock market for security in uncertain times. Owning the right mix of growth and dividend stocks is the key to never running out of money in retirement and ensuring your financial security should your income be slashed for whatever reason.  Stocks with a stable history, consistent dividends, and a genuine potential for price appreciation are perfect candidates.  In other words, consistency trumps high dividends and returns when it comes to saving for retirement.  My research has discovered a portfolio of five stocks that are a good start for anyone seeking to cement their financial security. #-ad_banner-#​1.
