As a follow up to “part I” in this series, this “part II” article highlights more attractive healthy-dividend companies. We’re sticking with the theme that investors should NOT blindly chase after the highest yielding securities, but rather focus on those with the healthiest yields. We highlight a handful of healthy yielders including one that we own in our Blue Harbinger Disciplined Growth portfolio.

This week’s Weekly highlights a group of healthy yielding securities. We also provide details for several specific high yielders with significant long-term price appreciation potential, including one we own in our Blue Harbinger Income Equity portfolio.

Two Compelling High-Yield Opportunities
This week’s Weekly addresses two compelling high-income opportunities (one of our own, and one from a Blue Harbinger member, Michael F).

And finally, Michael from Lincoln, Nebraska asks about a new wood chip play, Enviva (EVA) which offers a big distribution yield of 7.3%.

An Alternative High Income Bond Strategy
If it is safe high income you seek, this alternative strategy may be worth considering. Rather than investing only in big-dividend stocks, this article highlights three specific corporate bonds, and an advanced-strategy to generate high income with relatively low risk.
