Who Needs a Bull Market When You're Making +116% a Year in These 10.5% Yielders?

Read on and discover a small group of consistent double-digit yielders that are so unusual people don't even know what to call them.

Special Report July 2010

     You can buy them at any brokerage... but you need to find them first!

     Only three exist in the entire world -- one in the U.S. and two in Canada.

     They're not stocks, bonds, trusts, partnerships, ETFs or mutual funds. They're so unusual that people don't even know what to call them.

     Here at High-Yield Investing we just call them PCMs --"Perpetual Cash Machines."

     What makes these Cash Machines unique is that they are half common stock and half high-yield bond. So half of your yield comes from dividends that grow with the company's cash flow. The rest comes from a bond that pays you virtually guaranteed income. That's a double-barreled cash flow that no other security in the world can give you.

     They pay you every three months. Their recession-resistant business models churn out steady cash flows to support their dividends and interest income.

     And one more thing: they carry monster yields averaging 10.5%. These remarkable cash cows yield five times more than the average stock... twice as much as investment-grade bonds... their dividends qualify for the low 15% tax rate... and two of the three tack on an extra profit if the U.S. dollar continues to drop.

      On top of all that, they're capital gains juggernauts. They've surged an average of +116% in the past year.

     These oddball securities are such a perfect fit for us at High-Yield Investing that I am releasing an entire report for anyone who wants the full story on them.

     In Earn Double-Digit Yields From the Rarest Securities on Earth, I pry the lid off this minuscule corner of Wall Street.

     I profile all three of these rare gems and tell you why we're buyers at these prices. The report is free for all new subscribers to my newsletter.

     Buy these cash cows now and you may be tempted to hang up your investing spurs, sit back and just watch your dividends roll in.

     All you need is a handful of stocks like these and you've set yourself up for life. Play your cards right and you'll literally never have to invest again.

Our Income Jumped +16.2%!

       We income investors look at the market a bit differently than "regular" investors. It's not the price of an asset that interests us, it's how much cash it throws our way.

     After all, if you're an income investor, it's the cash in your pocket at the end of the year that counts. And I think it's fair to say that High-Yield Investing subscribers have been more than happy with the cash in their pockets recently.

     At the worst point of the stock-market rout in October 2008, the dividend payouts for the 19 companies in our model "Dividend Optimizer" portfolio had increased +16.2% over the previous year!

     Excuse me if I brag a little, but that's quite a feat given that dividend cuts among the S&P 500 last year came to more than $40 billion. Even companies like Bank of America, which had increased dividend payments annually for 25 years, were forced by the financial crisis to cut back. But only one of our picks cut its dividend (by -7.8%) while the other 18 either held flat or rose, by as much as +111.5%.

     How are we sidestepping the dividend cuts that have hammered so many other investors?

     Simple: We focus on safety as much as yield. We've been avoiding run-of-the-mill stocks in favor of investment-grade preferred shares and exchange-traded debt. For example, Capstead Mortgage Preferred B, which carries a rich yield of 8.4% and sends you a steady monthly check, and has held stable amid the market tumult.

Win the Race Before You Start

       The industries we cover in High-Yield Investing are delivering some of the highest dividend yields on the planet. In fact, nothing gets into our "10% Plus" portfolio unless it is yielding more than the historical stock market return of 9% a year. So we're beating the market right out of the gate on dividends alone!

     We're finding high-yielding stocks, funds and ETFs that are showering our subscribers with more cash than they know what to do with.

     You might be surprised how "boring" some of these cash cows are. For example, we've discovered a business that simply owns a small collection of old-fashioned wireline phone companies that yields 11.2%!

     This firm rakes in fees from millions of mostly rural phone customers. And because this revenue is almost recession-proof, it means predictable cash flows and steady dividends for us.

     If you'd like the details on this Steady Eddie--plus a steady stream of stocks, funds and other investments with abnormally high dividend yields--please accept my invitation to try High-Yield Investing.

     Like a constant wind at our back, every investment we make is supported by a generous and steady yield. This puts a strong floor of support under its share price.

     Just take a look at this Special Report. You'll see why high-yielding securities tend to plow steadily ahead in every economic climate...and exactly where we're finding the most bullish opportunities now.

The Most Crucial Investment Decision of All

       High-Yield Investing is based on the most crucial wealth-building decision an investor will ever make: how they treat the overlooked stepchild of Wall Street, the lowly dividend.

     Although little respected and often ignored, more than 137 years of data point to the inescapable conclusion that owning humdrum dividend-paying stocks... and then reinvesting those dividends... beats all other investment approaches hands down. So if dividend-paying stocks make you yawn, it's time to wake up and smell the cash.
 

Your Choice: $1.3 Million or $82k?

     Since 1926 dividends have contributed 40% of the total return delivered by the S&P 500. This makes a massive difference over the long haul. A $1,000 investment in the S&P 500 in 1935 would be worth $1,336,502 today with dividends reinvested, but a mere $82,245 without the dividends.

     Underestimating the awesome edge income-paying securities give you is the biggest mistake you can make in your investing life.

Higher Yields = Higher Safety, Too

     A key reason that dividend-paying investments have clobbered the competition is because they fare so much better during bear markets.
 
      Over the vicious three years of 2000, 2001 and 2002, the stocks in the S&P 500 that paid dividends actually rose 10.4%, while the nonpayer
sank -33.1%.

     There have been plenty of 10-year periods where dividends provided the only return for the S&P 500. Something tells me we're in the middle of one of those stretches right now.

     It's not the specific level of yield that matters to us -- although it's a great feeling to pocket 10% a year in cash while other investors are watching their stocks sink.

     What really counts is that they simply pay them. Dividends are a sign of financial strength, of a real business making real profits.

     And owning companies that keep increasing their dividends makes us even happier. The only way to consistently raise dividends is by growing cash flow. And any company that can do that year after year will create you a near-miraculous pile of money, as we'll now see...

Steady Wins the Race

     Philip Morris (now renamed "Altria"), which most investors dismiss as a stodgy -- even boring -- company, is a perfect example of this phenomenon.

     There's nothing fancy about making cheese, coffee and cigarettes. But with its high dividends and years of 15%-20% growth, "Big Mo" has thrown off some of the best long-term returns of any investment of the past two decades.

      While $10,000 invested in the S&P 500 in 1988 grew into a substantial $83,975 by 2008, that same $10,000 put into Philip Morris exploded into $347,715. You can attribute the bulk of that remarkable 34-fold gain to Philip Morris' 20-year record of high and rising dividends.

     But that's just the start of the story. Anyone who bought 200 shares back in February 1988 (then costing $17,350) was receiving $17,922 every year in dividends alone by 2008. That's more than their initial investment!

     To top it all off, Altria then spun off its Kraft subsidiary, awarding our original 200-share buyers with 4,078 new shares of Kraft worth $125,806. And believe it or not, these Philip Morris investors incurred 22% less risk than the market during their 20-year ride.

     Talk about enjoying the best of both worlds!

     Like subscribers to High-Yield Investing, these investors gave up nothing on their path to wealth, while enjoying a priceless peace of mind along the way.

     To be fair, the Philip Morris/Altria story is a particularly strong example of the miracle of compounded dividends. But it's far from unique. You can find similar results from any number of steady but unspectacular stocks with long-term records of high and rising dividends.

     Take Johnson & Johnson for example. Buying 200 shares of J&J at the same time in 1988 would have cost you $15,675. By reinvesting J&J's fat dividends into more stock, by 2008 you would have had 4,624 shares worth $291,978. And your shares would be throwing off $7,676 in dividends a year.

     Years before it merged with Mobil, Exxon was paying steady dividends. $8,400 would have bought you 200 shares. In 20 years, those 200 exploded into 1,550 shares worth $133,946... and your dividend of $2,170 per year gives you a 25.8% yield on your capital.

     Just as you would expect, this "dividend effect" works like a charm in the high-yielding utility arena. Look at Dominion Resources. In 1988, 200 shares of this old workhorse would have set you back $9,425. By 2008, you'd have had 1,849 shares worth $79,489... and be pocketing $2,921 per year in dividends, to boot.

     Likewise with Southern Company: 200 shares in February 1988 cost $4,800. Two decades later, you'd have 1,264 shares worth $45,980. And you'd be getting $2,036 in dividends per year (a 42.4% yield on your original investment).

     Another place dividends work wonders is in REITs. 200 shares of Washington REIT would have cost you just $4,825 back in 1988. By reinvesting dividends, over the intervening 20 years you'd have 1,346 shares worth $42,341 -- and you'd be getting $2,275 (47.1% of your buy-in cost) in dividends every year.

     With dividend growth like that, you can make staggering profits even if the share price never budges.

The Investment Thrill Reserved for
Income Investors Only

     As we just saw with Philip Morris, your dividend check can eventually grow so large that it surpasses the original price you paid for the stock. The exhilaration of "lapping" your stock that way is a feeling you never forget.

     But you'll never experience that "dividend high" unless you own stocks that pay them! That's why every single investment you'll find in High-Yield Investing has a yield.

     And not just any yield, but a bare minimum of 5% before we'll even take a closer look.

We're Not Allergic to Capital Gains, Either!

     It's a funny thing about the high-payout companies we dig up in High-Yield Investing: hold them long enough and before you know it, you're usually sitting on a nice-sized capital gain as well.

When we featured DryShips, Inc. for $11.35, it was yielding 7.1%. While the dividend came in like clockwork over the next two years, the share price skyrocketed to over $90, handing us a whopping 711% capital gain.

Likewise with another shipper, Diana Shipping. We featured this one at the same time as DryShips, because its 12.7% yield caught our eye. But the stock then proceeded to jump 163%, for a triple-our-money total return of 217%.

     Sometimes the dividend itself rises so high and so fast that capital gains are beside the point.

In October 2004 we added a stock to our portfolio at $57.41. Within three years it paid us dividends totaling $43.68. So we almost had our stock for free at that point.

We bought an oil royalty trust at the same time at $41.33 per share. It was paying a $3.82 dividend for a yield of 9.2%. Now it's paying $7.98 a share, giving us a 19.3% yield on our original buy-in price. Meanwhile, the shares are trading at about $93, for a total return of +312%.

Even so-so yielders like most utility stocks can surprise you. Edison International wasn't paying a whole lot when we bought it. But we knew its dividend was reliable. Edison's payout rose 53% and its share price doubled, giving us a +113% total return.

     You get the picture. When you own a steadily growing cash machine, good things tend to happen. You either pocket paycheck-size dividends on a regular basis, or watch your pile of beans grow into a mountain of cash.

Safety Is Everything

       To make sure your dividend is SAFE, we put cash flow under an analytical microscope. We dig deep to reveal which yields are treasures and which are traps.

     This is vital, because it gives you an early warning if any of your money is in danger. We're fanatical about digging out bad news.

     In a vicious bear market our stocks don't escape scot-free. But they take on a lot less water than other stocks in a market storm. And the dividends they pay tend to keep going up, up, up... just as they rose by +16.8% during the absolutely brutal period of October 2007 to October 2008.

     If you're at a point in life where you simply can't afford the damage a bear market will inflict on your stocks -- or to have your income wiped out by creeping inflation -- you'll appreciate the peace of mind these reliable high-payers offer.

     Their income streams are rock solid, not the phony pumped-up payouts that attract so many misguided "yield junkies" who discover too late that their exorbitant yields are fool's bargains. Buy them now and they'll shower you with rising income and share prices over the long haul.

Everything We Pick Passes Through
Our Financial Boot Camp

       Any knucklehead can generate a list of high-yielding stocks in about 5 minutes on his or her home computer. That's no way to find quality investments.

     By contrast, we put every stock, bond and mutual fund through a unique analytical boot camp before we even think about recommending it to you.

     We call it our "Dividend Optimizer." This model identifies securities with key traits of safe and lasting income streams. It then ranks them from best to worst based on our unique scoring system. No one else has this proprietary ranking mechanism.

     While the inner workings of our rating system are complex, its results are crystal clear. Your investment life will never be simpler. You supply the start-up capital and High-Yield Investing does the rest.

     We'll tell you where to put the money and when and where to move it around.

     You won't trade much. Why should we fritter away our money on commissions, taxes and bid/ask spreads? That's plain dumb. After all, the biggest profits are always made by the steady momentum of compounding. We want you to get rich -- not your broker.

     That brings us to another point: Brokers rarely push the kind of investments we specialize in. There's just too little in-and-out action for their tastes. Our picks are so reliable... so safe... and pay such high dividends that you can buy 'em and lock 'em away for years. You won't want to sell them. And that means zero commission for your broker. So don't expect Wall Street to advertise their great dividends and fantastic long term records to you.

We're In this Together

        At High-Yield Investing, all we do is help you profit from dependable cash-in-hand securities that steadily steamroll ahead, compounding their gains into ever-higher total returns. We report to no one but you. If our recommendations don't increase your wealth, we know we will lose your trust and your readership. And we'd deserve to.

     We accept no advertising. Nobody owns us. And we track all of our recommendations, so you always know how much money we're making for you.

     We have one purpose and one purpose only -- safely making you wealthy. Without a lot of nail biting and never more than a thimbleful of risk.

     On the contrary, when you try High-Yield Investing, the risk is all ours. (Try getting your broker to take a risk.) You don't risk a penny with our 100% money-back guarantee.

     Why do we offer such a generous guarantee? Because virtually no one uses it! They're too happy beating the tar out of the market.

     In 2009 our conservative "Dividend Optimizer" portfolio returned +27.8% and our more aggressive "10% Plus Portfolio" did even better, returning +42.6% (according to Hulbert Financial Digest). Not bad considering the S&P 500 returned +26.6% last year.

     Let's take a look at these portfolios now...

Your Two Portfolios

#1) "Dividend Optimizer" Portfolio -- We use our "Dividend Optimizer" model to find stable, growing companies yielding at least 5%. We want these stocks, bonds, funds and other securities to have long track records and strong future prospects.  These are investment ideas that you can count on to deliver above-average income year-in and year-out.

     These stocks are true mattress stuffers -- the kind you can buy and forget about. We wouldn't be surprised if they throw off dividends and capital gains of 100% in the next three to five years.

#2) "10%-Plus" Portfolio-- Here's where you'll find some of the highest-yielding investment ideas on the planet. Everything in here offers an annual income stream of 10% or greater. Here's what else we want to see:

a long track record of improving earnings. In general, the longer a firm has been profitable, the more likely it is to deliver steady returns in the coming years.
a history of consistent and growing dividend payments. We want to see steadily increasing dividends with no declines or missed payments.
strong cash flows. Since you can't  pay dividends without cash, we need to find companies that are generating above average amounts of cash each and every year.
strong projected growth. Growing firms are more likely to be able to boost their dividends in the future.
a sustainable payout ratio. Firms occasionally pay out 100% or more of their earnings to shareholders. They can't do this for long without cutting their dividend. We avoid firms with unsustainable dividend payouts.

        You'll get the full details on every one of the gems our system turns up when you join our service.  But first, let's look at one of our very favorite stocks right now...

Our Favorite Cash Cow As We Go to Press

       This dividend machine has surged +161% in the past five years, and it's still a strong buy.

     For starters, this Alaska oil-field play features a CD- crushing 15.4% yield, thanks to a dividend that has risen fourfold over the past decade.

     More important, however, is what's driving that dividend growth: powerful profit growth. This low-cost, strongly financed and aggressively managed outfit is a perfect example of the type of lean growth machines we want to own.

     We recommended this stock because we were impressed by its dividend record. Despite volatile oil prices, it has paid quarterly dividends for more than 20 years. Its last payment was almost four times bigger than its first.

with High-Yield Investing

       If anything we've said so far makes sense to you... if you think that we're even half right about the extraordinary profits and peace of mind that cash-in-hand securities will bring their owners in the coming years, then we'd like to send you the most comprehensive source of information you can get -- our High-Yield Investing advisory letter.

     High-Yield Investing is the only periodical devoted exclusively to helping you make money in every category of income investing. Nowhere will you find a more thorough ranking of your income investment options than in this monthly investment bulletin.

     You'll be joining a growing brotherhood of like-minded income lovers who share our love for reliable investment ideas delivering above-average income and strong capital gains.

     One more thing -- it's important: We invest in quality ideas that sport annual yields of 5%-20% -- NOT in high-yield junk.

     And when I say "investment ideas," I mean not only stocks, but also bonds, mutual funds, preferred stocks, ETFs, royalty trusts, closed-end funds, etc. We cover every class of income investment in High-Yield Investing.

     You'll find a few asset classes so exotic that you probably never knew they existed.

     Take the "oddball" security. Only three of these securities are left in the entire world: one in the U.S. and two in Canada.

     They're so rare, people can't even agree on what to call them -- "income deposit securities", "enhanced income securities" or "income participating securities."

     Whatever name you prefer, you won't find a more appealing mix of yield and growth than these hybrid securities give you.

     What makes "income deposit securities" unique is they comprise one share of common stock and one high-yield bond. In other words, about half of the yield comes from common share dividends that can grow with the company's cash flow. The rest comes from a high-yield bond that pays you virtually guaranteed income.

     The Canadian listings have ".UN" after their ticker, just like Canadian royalty trusts. Don't let that throw you off. Income deposit securities are not trusts. They won't be phased out and forced to convert to ordinary corporations this coming December like royalty trusts.

     Although just three IDS's are available today, they have surged an average of +116% in the past year.

     But share price gains are not their only attraction. These income deposit securities also carry monster yields of up to 10.7%. That's double the 5.2% yield on an average investment-grade bond and more than five times the 2.0% yield of the S&P 500.

     We just released a report on these three extraordinary high-yielding securities that you can get free as a new subscriber. (Keep reading for details.)

The Preferred Path to Wealth

       Speaking of out-of-the-mainstream income tools, right now we're finding some sparkling returns in preferred stocks. Choose them well and these hybrid securities give you the best of both worlds: the steady income of a bond and the appreciation of a stock.

     Like bonds, preferred stocks pay you interest every three months. And like common stocks, they can also hand you nice capital gains as the company grows.

     But when you buy a preferred stock, you have one huge advantage over common shareholders...

     When a company runs into tough times and cuts or cancels the dividend, it's tough luck for common stockholders. But when a preferred stock suspends payment, your payments accumulate on the ledgers and are paid in full when the company recovers.

     If you want an even higher level of safety, we'll introduce you to something called an "adjustable rate" preferred security. As its name implies, it adjusts its yield in tandem with interest rate changes, which means your principal remains steady even if rates rise. If rates go up, so does your payout. The only thing you miss out on is the heartburn other income investors are suffering as rates rise.

Cash Machine Today!

       With the S&P 500 yielding 2.0% and CDs paying even less, you will never get the income you need to live and retire comfortably from the mainstream asset pools most investors swim in. Especially with inflation chopping your return off at the knees.
