Two choices from my extremely diversified bonds and income bucket, these generate monthly income:
PFN Yield 9.58%
DSL Yield 9.65%
As always, vet any purchase to your satisfaction of risk tolerance.
Every day it's gone down over the past week I've been slowly moving in about 2-3% of my savings into my investment account.
Especially into the dividend aristocrat stocks that have been seeing over 5% dividend yield as the market goes down.

I dont think its done yet. Bottom out will be about 22000-23000. This week will tell us the story.
The word of the day and next few months is "volatility".
Conspiracy theory time: artificial volatility to attempt to hit Trump's reelection bid.
I wouldn't put it past democrats to do so. But I digress.

The D's are already trying to use it.
On the upside, because little/no shipments to china, there's a growing surplus of chicken and pork in the USA. Had to laugh, they call it a "smell it or sell it surplus".
PFN is badass.
Great stock to buy IMO. Im in for 1000 shares but will be adding more very soon.
But, but....this is Obama's economy!
Oh wait....only when it's convenient for them.
Yes
I cant stress this enough, brother: TALK to a financial advisor first to figure out what works best for you in the short, mid, and long term.
Get as educated as you can before pulling the trigger on stocks.
That said, i do like the monthly fat dividend of PFN (not familiar with the other one weather man is invested in) and am verrry tempted to add much more to my portfolio, but it is a risk. Stocks in general are.
I never play the puts or calls as shit can go sideways quickly, but i will join nxhappy in the ‘put’ and make an exception for Ford since they are run by ****ing morons and will be an easy layup once the ‘billion dollar loss’ they warned the world about begins to kick in.
Absolutely agree, you can self learn, if you put the hours in. Diversification is also very important, no one company, person or fund should be able hurt you for whatever reason.
Here is my complete bond and income bucket. The top 2 are for short term cash holding. You can see it isn't just about finding the biggest dividend, there is a range of risk and they are all equal weighted for safety. Some would say to many picks in the bucket, but they aren't gonna pay you for the bad ones. Everyone is different, the choices I have feel right and I sleep well at night.
I love Seeking Alpha, I am always clicking on the current news and watching the news bites and earnings reports. Get so many good idea's to vet.
Just saw this one pop up, Royce Value Trust RVT Yld 8.47% Over a 20 year record of just being super reliable paying out that quarterly dividend around 7-8%. Not a capital gains rock star, just pays out that steady dividend.
