The Fed just cut rates. I share a portfolio of 3-13% yielding investments that are well-positioned for the expected impacts of Fed rate cuts. I also share what I am avoiding right now.
I believe the current administration will prioritize broad growth over fighting inflation, creating a rare, bullish environment for certain stocks. Economic indicators show growth is bottoming, inflation remains sticky, and recent policies set the stage for cyclical opportunities to thrive. I see a perfect setup for select companies to deliver strong income and total returns, and I'm closely monitoring this environment for action.

Diversification is key, including balancing safety, growth, and income. But remember: Risks like volatility, taxes, and inflation demand careful planning. Start early, stay disciplined.

That's why I'm doubling down on select high-yield midstream stocks. They offer strong income, inflation protection, and long-term secular growth.
New Gold is at a financial inflection point, with ramp-ups, cost cuts, and high gold prices driving strong free cash flow and margin expansion through 2027. The company's recent acquisition of the remaining New Afton interest boosts cash flow, but timing raises questions given current high gold prices and mine life limits. Risks include mine life peaking after 2027 and heavy reliance on sustained high gold prices, but management's execution and new discoveries could offset declines.
