Global X MLP ETF

The real goal of dividends in retirement isn't what most investors think. I discuss 3 investments that combine nicely to form a powerful dividend growth machine for retirement. I also discuss the biggest risk with each of these investments.

A historic setup with a simultaneous supply cliff and debt wall is forming right under investors' noses. Meanwhile, old fears are masking a powerful cash flow inflection for one of my favorite buying opportunities right now. I share two opportunities that have a very rare combination of high-quality management and balance sheets, impressive fundamental strength, and clearly attractive valuations.

Investors are being handed a rare gift with some high-yielding, undervalued opportunities available right now. Two 8-10% yields look far safer and cheaper than the market assumes. I share a contrarian setup that could quietly deliver very strong total returns.

The market looks very overvalued today. However, there is a corner of it that appears largely overlooked. I detail why I am pouring a large percentage of my portfolio into this golden buying opportunity.

The Global X MLP ETF (NYSEARCA:MLPA) offers exposure to energy infrastructure through master limited partnerships and delivers an extremely high 7.2% dividend yield today.

Global X MLP ETF (MLPA) remains a buy despite lagging the S&P 500, offering a high 7.79% yield and attractive valuation. MLPA trades at just 10.75x earnings with a strong long-term EPS growth rate, resulting in a compelling PEG ratio below 1. The ETF is highly concentrated in Energy-sector MLPs, with the top 10 holdings making up over 90% of assets, posing some risk.

I am thankful for many things this year. I am particularly thankful for my favorite Black Friday special from Mr. Market. I detail why I like this high-yielding bargain.

Global X MLP ETF offers income investors exposure to U.S. midstream energy infrastructure, focusing on volume-driven, contract-based cash flows, not oil price speculation. MLPA's 7.95% yield is supported by durable, inflation-linked distributions from irreplaceable pipeline assets, with 13 years of steady payouts and no leverage-enhanced risk. The ETF's C-Corp structure simplifies tax reporting, making it attractive for international investors and retirement accounts, though it can create short-term NAV drag during rallies.

The macro data suggest that dividend investors may be in for a rude surprise in the wake of the Fed's rate cuts. Because a major macro shift is underway, the usual assumptions dividend investors make may no longer be reliable. I also share how I am seeking to avoid potentially the most dangerous mistake many dividend investors are making right now.

These two high-yield funds combine dependable income with exposure to some of the strongest long-term secular trends. They offer high yields that are backed by portfolios filled with high-quality companies. They also trade at very attractive valuations and provide strong dividend growth.
