My Dividend Hunter service offers investors a different (and safer) way to grow their wealth. My largest investment account is 100% Dividend Hunter-recommended investments. I will share the recent results further down the road. The Dividend Hunter strategy focuses on building an income stream using high-yield investments. The recommended portfolio includes individual stocks, ETFs, and […]
Today I continue what I have been calling my dogfight series, pitting two single-stock covered call ETFs, using the same underlying stock, against each other. YieldMax invented the single-stock covered call ETF in 2023. It now has 25 of these ETFs covering different popular stocks. And in October 2023, Kurv funds launched six single-stock covered […]
Are you like me and feel the U.S. election season goes on far too long? It seems like as soon as one election ends, the political class starts agitating for the next one. During an election year, it gets absolutely out of control. I blame a lot of it on the news media, where politics […]
During my time as a fighter pilot, a one-versus-one dogfight was one of the most challenging types of flights. This type of mission pitted one pilot’s skills against his opponent. This air combat training was not the type of mission where you wanted to come home second best. The new category of single stock covered-call […]

This innovative ETF, as outlined in the prospectus, […]
High-yield ETFs using covered call strategies have become hot investments. Assets in this type of fund have grown tenfold over the last few years, with new option strategy funds launched every week. In February, we launched the ETF Income Edge service to provide understandable research and recommendations in the new world of covered call ETFs. […]
The challenges businesses faced during the pandemic’s early days forced many companies to change their dividend policies. Now, more than four years on from those scary days, it is apparent that many companies will not go back to their pre-COVID dividend practices. Share buybacks have become a more popular way to “return cash to shareholders.” […]
This month we’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of my Dividend Hunter high-yield investment service. Over the years, I found that the recommended investments (portfolio) list carried an average yield of around 8%. I recently took another look at the current average yield and was quite surprised that it was above 10%. Let’s see what’s changed. […]
This article covers one of my favorite news items from the last month. A new significant source of lithium has been discovered. The source is in the U.S., and the lithium is easily recoverable. The rub is that the new lithium source is closely tied to hydrocarbon energy production. Here is a quote and graphic […]
