Hi, Been lurking here for some time without posting and like the style of the board. Don't claim to be an expert. Have been in the market since IBM was $500.0, owned QCOM at $800.0 and lots of losers along the way. There are lots of high yield ETF's that pay the div. every month year after year. The yield is high and the risk may be a little too high for some but they keep paying. On pullbacks because of performance the yield typically remains at the same level. Lower price, lower div, same yield but even ETF's bought higher will still yield more than 6% on my cost basis and many time recover to previous levels. Some high yield selections are: cik 8.29%, COY 8.62% DHF 9.04%, EAD 11.48%, GAB 9.32, LBC 9.16, PHT 9.21, ZTR 9.33. Some of these increase their div regularly. My yield on GAB is 14% and gain is better than 49% holding 2.5 years. The difference in yield is watching the world series on TV or from the third base line Trading high yield issues for years and the losers sold lost less than the annual yield, gotta pay attention but addiction not required. Many of the top holders in the issues are pension funds. Hard to find news on most but worth the investment. Best to everyone on Thanksgiving. Cosmo
