Mr. Market is currently offering some highly compelling bargains in the high-yield space. I share two opportunities yielding between 6-10% with strong dividend growth profiles. These opportunities issue 1099 tax forms, have investment-grade credit ratings, and are very defensive.
On this week's episode, Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, provided an in-depth look at the rapidly expanding indexing business and its role in driving innovation across the ETF landscape.
A new trade war threat from President Trump just reshuffled the entire stock market. I discuss what the big gift to dividend investors is. I also share how I am taking advantage of President Trump's gift.
High-yielding stocks with sustainable cash flows and inflation-beating dividend growth potential are ideal for retirees. They are even more attractive if they have defensive business models. I share several 8%+ yields that all retirees should own, especially after their recent dips.
TMX VettaFi is rapidly establishing itself as a key index partner, leveraging a strategy of product expansion and strategic acquisitions.
Alerian MLP ETF offers exposure to US-based oil and gas infrastructure MLPs, providing an attractive 8.2% dividend yield. AMLP simplifies tax reporting for investors by issuing a 1099 instead of a K-1, though it carries a relatively high 0.85% expense ratio. The ETF is a strong portfolio diversifier for income investors, with a moderate 5-year dividend CAGR of 2.53% and a focus on high-yield sectors.
Alerian MLP ETF provides exposure to US midstream MLPs with a current attractive yield nearing 8.5%. AMLP offers diversification, tax simplification, and high distributions, making it appealing for income-focused investors seeking sector exposure. The ETF's main risks are sector concentration and its rebalancing mechanism, which can increase exposure to underperforming top holdings.
Summary While the Permian tends to be known for its oil output, its production mix continues to get gassier, with gas production growth outpacing that of oil. Midstream companies are building new pipeline takeaway capacity from the Permian.
If I had to rely on just two income investments to fund retirement, these would be it. These investments combine yield, growth, safety, value, and macro tailwinds. Here's why I'm building my portfolio around these engines of passive cash flow.
AMLP offers stable, high-yield exposure to essential midstream infrastructure, with an 8% yield and simplified tax treatment via its C-corp ETF structure. Rising U.S. LNG exports and growing domestic natural gas demand support long-term volume growth for midstream companies held by AMLP. Major infrastructure expansions and regional price dynamics will drive increased gas flows from the Appalachian Basin to the Gulf Coast, benefiting AMLP constituents.
AMLP has significantly underperformed the market recently. However, its underlying fundamentals have been phenomenal. Buy the dip in this 8% yielding dividend growth machine.
The Permian Basin, located in West Texas and Southeast New Mexico, is the growth engine of the U.S. in regard to oil and gas output. MLPs are enhancing their operations in the basin through M&A activity, as evidenced by a series of announcements from Western Midstream, MPLX LP, and Enterprise in recent weeks.
