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. |

Blue-Chip Firm
Appreciates +70% and Increases Dividends +76% in Three Years
Published:
April 28, 2008
As
you are probably aware, the U.S. dollar has been stuck in a
precipitous decline, sliding to record lows against the euro
last week. While this freefall has made life tough for U.S.
citizens traveling abroad, it has provided a brisk tailwind for
domestic multi-national firms that take in a large chunk of their
revenues overseas. Not only does a weak dollar sweeten currency
translation, but also makes exported products less expensive for
foreign consumers.
Carla Pasternak, editor of our premium
High-Yield Investing newsletter, predicted this in
January 2005 when she first recommended Caterpillar (NYSE:
CAT, $82.25) -- a Dow Jones Industrials component that
derives almost 60% of its sales in foreign markets. But that's
not the only thing that Carla found attractive about this heavy-equipment manufacturer.
As she pointed out at the time, increased demand for mining and
farm equipment were likely to become key growth drivers -- and
that has indeed been the case, as metals and agriculture have
been red-hot lately. And, of course, with a modest payout ratio
of just 25% and a history of dividend hikes dating back to the
Woodrow Wilson administration, there was ample opportunity for a
rising income stream as well.
Since that time, Caterpillar has announced three +20% dividend
increases, with the overall annual payout rising +76%, from
$0.82 per share to the current $1.44. Meanwhile, thanks in part
to soaring sales overseas, investors have pushed the shares from
a split-adjusted price of $48.75 to Friday's close of $82.25 --
a healthy gain of nearly +70%.
In this month's newsletter, Carla has singled out another
blue-chip firm with a comfortable payout ratio and a reliable
pattern of lifting its dividend distributions year after year.
The company, one of the most venerable financial institutions in
the United Kingdom (that trades conveniently on the NYSE), has a stable earnings outlook, a rock-bottom
P/E ratio of 7.5, and a hefty yield above 8%.
To see Carla's complete lineup of today's most attractive
income-producing securities, including the firm mentioned above,
