You should never pay more for a stock than its worth. Especially when there are ways to determine if a stock is overpriced.
Buying overpriced assets leads to losses, which is exactly why you need to learn how to value a company to become a successful investor.
We use several metrics like the P/E Ratio, P/B Ratio and PEG Ratio to provide insight on a stock's true value.
Types of assets that have a NAV Price or Par Value make it easy, but with other companies, you need another way to compare apples to apples. And that exactly why we compare a stock' P/E Ratio to that of its peers.
FullRatio is a great site to find these averages.
Tim's scanner research revealed these high dividend and undervalued stocks mentioned during the episode.

  • BTI - 9.1% yield with a 6.9 P/E (tobacco industry average is 15.12 P/E)
  • NAT - 11.1% yield with a 8.0 P/E (marine shipping industry average is 18.65 P/E)
  • T - 7% yield with a 6.5 P/E (telecom industry average is 15.43 P/E)
  • MO - 9.2% yield with a 8.5 P/E (tobacco industry average is 15.12 P/E)
  • NSA - 7.2% yield with a 28.02 P/E (REIT specialty industry average is 45.94 P/E)
  • UAN - 34.22% yield with a 3.19 P/E (farm products industry average is 16.43 P/E)
  • AFCG - 17.65% yield with a 6.71 P/E (REIT specialty industry average is 45.94 P/E)
  • NEP - 14.70% yield with a 17.75 P/E (Solar industry average is 17.9 P/E)

Yes, K-1 forms are a pain in the butt, but that's what tax preparers are for. Some of our favorite stocks are MLPs. One of them is managed by Carl Icahn who's considered to be one of the great investors just like Warren Buffet.

Investing "experts" and the media have been pushing everyone to buy bonds. But that makes no sense to us because it's so hard to find good undervalued bonds right now.
We only buy bonds when they're depreciated well below their Par Value. And almost everything we're seeing right now is close to Par or above.
To us that signals the time to get out of bonds which is exactly what we've started doing. We bought our bonds 6 months to over a year ago and have made some pretty amazing profits.
As bond opportunities are drying up, we don't want you to lose money trying to get into them now.
But if you really want some bond-type assets in your portfolio, here are a few options that are decent and are currently undervalued.
Bonds

  • Pemex Bonds
  • Petroleos Mexicanos

Bond ETFs

  • MFHVX
    CRDOX

Bond Close Ended Funds

  • DSL
  • DLY
  • PDI
  • PDO

Foreign Bond Close Ended Funds

  • AWF
  • EMB

Municipal Bonds

  • NEA
  • NAD
  • NZF

YieldMaxTM ETFs sound too good to be true and they actually are if you view them as a regular stock investment. But if you treat them as a vehicle you're purchasing to generate income, they become a useful tool.
You need to use a different investing strategy with these ETFs because of the higher risk for loss of value of the base asset. That's why we track our payouts until we get our initial investment back before we even consider turning on the DRIP.
These ETFs still aren't as high risk as they seem. They have the majority of their funds in treasuries and only a small percent of their money is used to trade options. The options proceeds are how they generate their high monthly payouts.
YieldMaxTM ETFs are a great way to make money from popular stocks that don't pay dividends. We think everyone should hold some of these in their portfolio, but only up to 5% of your total investments.
When you use these funds to generate extra income to funnel into other quality assets, you can really make it grow fast.

Roaming Returns - 009 - Limit Your Downside Risk With Low Beta Stocks
play

09/15/23 • 12 min

If down days in the market send you into panic mode, you need to implement a beta strategy. Stocks with a beta close to 1 are much less volatile than the market, which limits your downside.
Low beta's also decrease the upside. But that's okay for dividend stocks, because of reinvesting and compounding.
CALM is our favorite and ridiculously low beta stocks. Who would've thought that eggs could be so exciting?
Of course there's other ways to limit your downside like
