Carla Pasternak's Premiere Issue of High-Yield International Just Released

Government's Biofuel Timetable Could Spell +15,900% Growth
+15,900% growth might seem far-fetched... but it's not. In fact, it is mandated by law. And I've identified the ONLY stock positioned to capture this growth.

The Silver Lining to a Falling Dollar
Despite the U.S. national debt, there is a silver lining for income investors. This massive spending, combined with movement out of U.S. Treasuries, is going to take its toll on the dollar, and international income investors could reap the rewards in the form of higher dividends.



Recent Winners: Chile's Growth Paid Off for This Fund

When most people think of income investing, high-yield (but stodgy) companies like Altria (NYSE: MO) and Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM) typically spring to mind. However, as its readers can attest, StreetAuthority's High-Yield Investing newsletter goes off the beaten path in search of securities with monstrous yields and above-average total return potential.

Occasionally, that means Editor Carla Pasternak ventures outside the borders of the U.S. to locate new ideas. Such was the case in January 2006, when Carla made Chile Fund (NYSE: CH, $19.98) her "High-Yield Security of the Month." At the time, the fund yielded an amazing 25.3% and had already delivered sensational returns of +942% since its inception 15 years earlier -- and Carla saw even more gains on the horizon.

From a big-picture perspective, Chile's Santiago Stock Exchange appeared to be on the verge of an extended rally. As Carla noted, Chile was one of Latin America's fastest-growing nations, with a dynamic, commodity-driven economy and the highest credit ratings in the region.

And Chile Fund's manager, Matthew Hickman, was targeting some of the country's most established blue-chip companies, primarily favoring undervalued firms with attractive growth prospects. For the most part, that led to a portfolio heavily tilted towards "economic growth engines," such as power generators and paper makers, as well as companies benefiting from Chile's robust consumer spending.

Since Carla Pasternak featured the Chile Fund, everything has gone according to plan. Top holdings like brewer Cervecerias Unidas and chemical maker Sociedad Quimica y Minera have soared +61% and +83%, respectively, over the past year alone. Meanwhile, the fund itself has posted impressive net asset value (NAV) growth of +27% so far this year -- on the heels of a +33% gain in 2006.

Now, Carla has singled out yet another country poised to deliver market-thumping gains. Like Chile, this nation is home to a booming, export-driven economy (one of the largest in all of Asia) and some of the most dominant companies on the globe. Meanwhile, Carla's favorite closed-end fund, which she has singled out as her "High-Yield Security of the Month" for August 2007, offers broad exposure to this fast-growing, but still undervalued nation -- which has attracted the interest of none other than Warren Buffett.

On top of that, this closed-end fund has just announced a special distribution of $14.51 per share -- giving it a projected forward yield of 34.4%!
