3 Dividend Stocks I'm Buying As Irrational Exuberance Takes Over

Current market conditions reflect irrational exuberance, with surging valuations in stocks, precious metals, crypto, and collectibles reminiscent of past bubbles. Conflicting economic signals persist: inflation data is mixed, the labor market is weakening, but affluent consumer spending and bank lending remain resilient. Dividend growth investing remains my preferred strategy, with a focus on high-quality REITs, utilities, and my favorite cash equivalent ETF.

3 Dividend Stocks I'm Buying As Irrational Exuberance Takes Over

ICSH: Low-Cost ETF To Park Extra Cash

ICSH offers a low-cost, highly liquid option for parking excess cash, with a 4.76% yield and minimal spread risk. The ETF invests in diversified, investment-grade, ultra-short duration bonds, making it sensitive to Federal Reserve rate policy changes. With a likely Fed rate cut ahead, investors should consider intermediate-term bonds, but ICSH remains a strong short-term cash alternative.

Peak Humans: The Megatrend No One Is Talking About (Yet)

Global population is set to peak and decline by the 2050s-2080s, driven by irreversible fertility trends, impacting economies worldwide. Slowing and shrinking populations will lead to stagnating consumption, labor market mismatches, and reduced innovation, mirroring Japan and China's economic patterns. In a low-growth, low-inflation world, growth stocks and high-quality dividend payers—especially REITs—should outperform as capital chases scarce opportunities for growth and yield.

Goodbye Growth? Here's What I'm Buying As Value Mounts A Comeback

Tech sector capital investment is surging, but enterprise AI adoption is showing disappointing returns, with 95% seeing zero ROI per an MIT study. This disconnect raises concerns about who will ultimately pay for the ongoing AI investment if enterprise customers remain slow to realize benefits. Recent underperformance in growth tech stocks reflects these doubts, while value-oriented dividend stocks have demonstrated resilience and defensiveness.

Cash Is King: Money-Market ETFs in Focus

Market uncertainty and high short-term yields put money-market ETFs like MINT, NEAR and ICSH in the spotlight for income and stability seekers.

How I've Built A Monster Passive Income Portfolio (And What I'm Buying Now)

I remain committed to dividend growth investing, adapting my strategy to balance growth, yield, and defensiveness amid demographic and economic shifts. My 'galley ship' portfolio model uses ballast (cash), rowers (compounders), and sails (high-yielders) to optimize for both income growth and stability. Recent portfolio adjustments focus on defensive, recession-resistant stocks and ETFs, emphasizing passive income growth regardless of market cycles.

5 Stocks I'm Buying As Retail Investors Take Over The Market

Retail-driven meme stock mania is back, echoing 2021's irrational exuberance, with surges in fundamentally weak, heavily shorted stocks. Market leadership is shifting from the "Magnificent 7" to the "Fabulous 5" AI giants, driven by proprietary technology and AI infrastructure advantages. Despite market optimism, I remain concerned about persistent tariffs, which threaten corporate margins and are largely ignored by investors.

Dividend Growth Is My Antidote To Uncertainty

In an uncertain market, I stick to five core investing principles: stay the course, specialize, diversify, trust proven experts, and keep some cash. Dividend growth investing (DGI) remains my strategy, with a focus on reliable cash flow compounding and growing dividends to eventually replace labor income. I diversify beyond my real estate core by blending passive DGI ETFs and selecting active ETFs with proven outperformance.

7 Stocks I'm Buying As Tariffs And Deportations Prowl Behind The Rally

Tariff risks are underappreciated by the market; persistently high tariffs could weigh on economic growth, and investor complacency is unwarranted. Slowing population growth and deportations threaten U.S. economic expansion, especially in labor-dependent sectors, as immigration is key to workforce and consumption growth. Utility-scale renewables remain resilient despite policy headwinds, with cost competitiveness and strong demand from major tech firms supporting continued growth.

5 Stocks I'm Buying As The 'Big Beautiful Bill' Pushes The Market To New Highs

The Big Beautiful Bill boosts defense, industrials, and manufacturing, but healthcare and some REITs face headwinds from Medicaid cuts and policy shifts. AI optimism and the new legislation are fueling a broad market rally, but I question if AI stocks are outpacing their earnings, signaling a potential bubble. The Magnificent 7 era is over; META, MSFT, NVDA, and AMZN are the new leaders, while AAPL, GOOG, and TSLA face unique challenges in the AI race.
