Dear Investor, There is no better feeling than when a stock with a large and stable dividend goes “on sale.” The knowledge that a dividend will continue to be paid makes it easy to buy shares when the investing public is selling. You’re getting that same future dividend stream for a lower price And that’s […]
Dear Investor, High inflation has become a driving force in our lives. It’s challenging to invest for income and keep up with inflation, especially outside of commodity-focused investments. It takes an extra step to ferret out investments that will perform well while inflation stays high. We need higher interest rates. But one category of income […]
Dear Investor, The last six-to-eight months have seen a handful of new, income-focused ETFs hit the market. I think these funds give investors attractive and conservative investment options. Their dividend yields are in the 6%–7% range, with lots of potential for dividend growth. One interesting aspect of these new funds is that each uses a […]
Dear Investor, I have encouraged my Dividend Hunter subscribers to put our high-yield, monthly dividends on automatic dividend reinvestment for at least the last six months. I contend that automatic reinvestment through a market downturn and recovery will quickly build wealth. Today, let me show you a little math to prove that investment hypothesis – […]
Dear Investor, It seems we are going through several years of constantly hearing about the latest crisis – such as the pandemic and war – and we must figure out the best course of action. In part because of this most recent crisis, much of the stock market has fallen to correction territory. But there […]
Dear Investor, I write this after spending a long day driving from the Reno, Nevada, area to Las Vegas, where I currently am as a speaker for the MoneyShow investors’ conference.

Dear Investor, Investors are rightfully worried about inflation, which is now running at more than 7%. It will be challenging to decide which companies and stocks will be hurt by higher prices and which will benefit. One surefire strategy will be to invest in commodity producers that have directly linked their dividends to profits. These […]
Dear Investor, The market volatility that has started 2022 is making many investors nervous about their portfolios. But not me: I have been pleased with how well the high-yield investments recommended in my Dividend Hunter service have performed. One high-yield category in particular has really stood out, with great dividends and share price appreciation through […]
Dear Investor, For the last two years, much of what passes as investment advice, or recommended investment products, attempted to guess and benefit from short-term trends. However, many investors need long-term strategies and solutions to meet their financial and retirement goals. Finally, over the last few months, fund management companies have launched several new funds […]
Dear Investor, Recently I heard a TV stock pundit note that ever since Exxon Mobil (XOM) was booted from the Dow Jones Industrial Average, its share price is up over 100%. Meanwhile, the hot tech-sector stock that replaced Exxon is down 21%. This story indicates how often investors don’t take valuation into their investment decision […]
