This article is about as useless as teats on a horse. If Investors want higher yield with safety, slow capital gains and increasing dividends, they would do well to look at the MLP pipeline stocks. I have owned thousands of shares of KMP, OKS, MWE, TPP, EEP & NRP, all pipelines except NRP, which is a coal L.P. All pay over 6%, have raised their dividends between once and four times a year, for the past five years and the yield is tax deferred until the stock is sold, since most of the dividend is return of capital. These stocks are paid solely to move product (natural gas or oil) through a pipeline and are paid by volumn and are not effected by the price of the commodity. Total return for most of these stocks has been between 12%-18% a year since 2,000. Advising an Investor to buy a stock with a high dividend likely to be reduced is idiotic.
