The AAII Washington D.C. Metro Chapter presents...
"Big Yield Hunting on Deadly Ground
"
Discussed by:
Roger Conrad
Editor, Canadian Edge; Editor, Utility Forecaster; Co-Editor, MLP Profits
In an era of slow and jagged economic growth and rock-bottom bond yields, Roger Conrad will argue that buying and holding dividend-paying stocks is the only way investors can live off their portfolios—as well as the surest road to wealth-building for savers. Many companies, however, are struggling to keep up with dividend payments—and if they do cut payouts, investors will lose both income and principal, as share prices head south. The keys to getting the most out of dividend-paying stocks, and avoiding the pitfalls, are diversification, balance and focusing on quality. Conrad will explore a range of sectors drawn from the extensive coverage universes of his advisories, from Canadian high-income stocks to U.S. utilities and master limited partnerships, highlighting the best and worst.
