Important Updates for Investors
Carla Pasternak's Premiere Issue of High-Yield International Just
Released
Income expert Carla Pasternak's debut issue of High-Yield
International covers a Taiwanese manufacturer yielding 9.5%... a
rare Mexican monopoly yielding 13.4%... and other top-performing
investments yielding up to 19.0%.
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. |

Invest in This Fund Today
for a 9.3% Yield and Exposure to Hot Overseas Real Estate Markets |
Published: April 18,
2007
The Fidelity International Real Estate Fund (FIREX)
travels overseas for its real estate investments. The fund owns a basket
of real estate securities, primarily commercial property owners located
in Europe, Asia, and Australia.
The fund has paid out total distributions of $1.64 per share over the
past 12 months, including a year-end capital gains payment of $0.77.
That gives it a yield of 9.3% at the current price. Plus, an extremely
low expense ratio of 0.91% takes a relatively tiny bite out of total
returns.

Established in late 2004, FIREX
returned an astounding +43% last year, including both capital
appreciation and dividend payments. That's more than double the +16%
total return of the S&P 500 and far ahead of most of its peers as well.
In fact, its impressive performance put the fund on the leader boards,
placing it in the upper 4% of its category, according to fund tracker
Morningstar.
The fund's $1.4 billion portfolio focuses on real estate and financial
conglomerates such as Japanese real estate developer Mitsubishi Estate,
Australia's multi-national shopping center owner Westfield Group, and
Britain's Land Securities, the largest property company in Europe.
Most of these holdings do not trade on U.S. exchanges or in U.S.
dollars, and the fund doesn't hedge against fluctuations between U.S.
and foreign currency. In other words, if the Japanese yen weakens
against the U.S. dollar, then the value of Mitsubishi Estate's shares
and dividend payout could decline for a U.S. investor. Of course, the
reverse is also true.
In addition to currency volatility, the fund is also subject to a
variety of other risk factors. For example, a global economic slowdown
could depress the value of international real estate and eat into
dividend payments. With that in mind, investors shouldn't expect a
repeat of last year's stupendous performance. Still, the fund does hold
solid investments that should outperform over the long-term.
Action To Take ---> FIREX
offers medium-risk investors a good way to diversify their assets and
hedge against the U.S. dollar.
