    I recently bought into a new position in my portfolio that yields over 9%, pays monthly dividends, and exposes me to an asset class I haven't previously held any investments in. In my opinion, preferred stocks are some of the most ideal holdings for people who are either retired or just want a steady dividend. So in this video, I'm gonna go into detail about why I expanded into preferreds, why I chose this ETF out of all the others that exist, and where I think this investment will go in the future.

    Because of dividends, I first began investing in stocks. It's important, in my opinion, to be able to live off of dividends without selling if you invest and make other income in addition to payouts. It suggests that you may pass that down to your kids and give them a leg up in life. Over the years, I've invested over $600k in dividend stocks; I continue to buy more today and will keep doing so until the price drops even further.

      Hearing from an experienced investor who has survived adversity and prevailed is always motivating. It may be frightening when your portfolio goes from green to red, but if you have invested in strong firms, you should maintain growing them and stick to your goal.

      I wholeheartedly concur, which is why I appreciate giving an investment coach the power of decision-making. Given their specialized expertise and education, as well as the fact that each and every one of their skills is centered on harnessing risk for its asymmetrical potential and controlling it as a buffer against certain unfavorable developments, it is practically impossible for them to underperform. I have made over 1.5 million dollars working with an investment coach for more than two years

    Recently bought some recommended stocks and now they are just penny stocks. There seems to be more negative portfolios in the last 3rd half of 2023 with markets tumbling, soaring inflation, and banks going out of business. My concern is how can the rapid interest-rate hike be of favor to a value investor, or is it better avoiding stocks for a while?

    • @frankedwardark

      Just ''buy the dip'' man. In the long term it will payoff. High interest rates usually mean lower stock prices, however investors should be cautious of the bull run, its best you connect with a well-qualified adviser to meet your growth goals and avoid blunder.

      A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850K.

    I added this to my portfolio on a previous suggestion you made in one of your videos and like the monthly dividend. Great video by the way as usual. I found you on CZcams and have used your information to completely eliminate all my holdings and start over. I held many of the stocks you said to stay away from and followed your suggestions. What a difference you have made for myself and my wife. Before I buy a stock I always look at your videos and scan your library for any comments you may have had. I now research and listen to other people on CZcams and then check comments you have made before pulling the trigger. Thank you again for all your hard work.

    My largest preferred ETF position. Considering they launched at $25 a share I think the upside over the next 3 years is significant considering the fed has not started cutting rates. I will say that if rates go up instead of down(which i doubt) this is not the equity you want to hold as leverage(the fund is 30% levered) works against you. I own it at an average of $18.50.

    @jacksonpohl Před 12 dny +1

    I would think that a major benefit of dividend investing is that calculating portfolio size needed is not relevant. We don't care about the value of the portfolio. We care about the sustainable income it pays. As you invest you can gradually see the income rise as you invest more and pull the retirement trigger when it's high enough regardless of the market sentiment.

    • @rogerwheelers4322
      @rogerwheelers4322 Před 12 dny +1

      By calculating how much additional income the contributions produce and estimating how that income rises. the capital value will fluctuate up and down over time so the amount of income new additions give you varies. so capital value being high with a market yielding 2% is no worse for retirement than the same portfolio at a different timepoints where the capital value is half and so the yield is 4%. so long as the yield is sustainable in real terms the capital value being half does not matter. its the same income stream at a different moment of low market sentiment vs high market sentiment.
