Buy 9 Ideal Safer Dividend Power August Dogs
I highlight 35 top-yield Dividend Power stocks, focusing on high earnings yield and dividend yield for value and resilience in volatile markets. Nine stocks stand out as 'safer' picks, with free cash flow yields exceeding dividend yields, making them attractive for income-focused investors. Analyst projections suggest potential net gains of 24% to 67% by August 2026 for the top ten picks, though risk and volatility remain.

Yield Hunting Part 30: Over 7% From Gladstone Investment
Gladstone Investment offers high-yield baby bonds with low duration, making them attractive for yield-focused investors seeking moderate risk. GAIN's portfolio is unique among BDCs, with 30% in preferred shares and a concentrated set of 25 investments, increasing both return and risk. We favor GAIN's baby bonds (GAINI, GAINZ) over common stock due to their stable yields (7.07–7.79%).

Gladstone Investment: A Higher Risk BDC With Upside
I'm overweighting Gladstone Investment for its equity-driven returns, benefiting from a strong stock market and potential $1B+ investment portfolio milestone. GAIN's unique equity orientation and first lien focus position it for outperformance versus peers, especially as market conditions remain favorable. High non-accrual ratio is a risk, but resolving these could boost net investment income, improve dividend coverage, and enhance margin of safety.

Gladstone Investment: A Fair Price For A Great Business
Valuations across equities and bonds are stretched, making traditional asset classes unattractive and prompting a search for value in less crowded sectors. Top business development companies like ARCC and MAIN are currently overvalued, offering limited upside and heightened risk at current prices. Gladstone Investment stands out for its unique equity-focused BDC strategy, mature portfolio, and trades near book value, unlike its peers.
