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.

Eight of the top fifteen Barron's Better Bets (BBB) 'Safer' dividend stocks, including Conagra, Altria, and Verizon, are currently attractively priced for income investors. Analyst forecasts project net gains of 18.44% to 29.95% for the top ten BBB Dogs by November 2026, with an average estimated gain of 22.01%. Stocks are considered 'dogs' when their reliable dividends and lower prices result in higher yields; eight of the top ten are already at ideal pricing levels.

During times of turbulence and uncertainty in the markets, many investors turn to dividend-yielding stocks. These are often companies that have high free cash flows and reward shareholders with a high dividend payout.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation, LandBridge Company LLC, and WaterBridge Infrastructure LLC are poised to benefit from the next phase of U.S. shale, dubbed "shale 4.0." Innovative extraction technologies and increased water needs are driving demand for land, water disposal, and infrastructure, boosting pricing power for TPL and LB. Despite current market apathy due to low oil prices, the long-term outlook for asset-light land and water businesses in the Permian Basin remains highly bullish.

Several high-quality companies currently offer dividend yields of 5% or higher. These companies back their payouts with healthy financial profiles.

TC Energy (TRP) and ONEOK (OKE) are midstream companies that have been moving in different directions in terms of their share prices, resulting in one becoming undervalued. Both names have enjoyed a long history of paying and growing their dividends, and being in the midstream space generally results in higher relative yields as well. While both may be attractive long-term bets, I have recently made a move on OKE and expect my TRP shares to be called away after writing covered calls.

ONEOK (OKE) is a major U.S. midstream operator, moving and processing natural gas liquids through a large, fee-based pipeline network that delivers steady cash flow. Despite its scale and stability, the stock hasn't kept pace, creating a potential disconnect between performance and valuation.

When deciding whether to buy, sell, or hold a stock, investors often rely on analyst recommendations. Media reports about rating changes by these brokerage-firm-employed (or sell-side) analysts often influence a stock's price, but are they really important?

I share the one chart that is not getting nearly enough attention, given its immense implications for the world economy. This chart reveals a massive power shift that markets haven't priced in, and it could reshape the entire future of AI, manufacturing, and geopolitics. I detail how I am positioning my portfolio to take advantage of it.

There is a major market disconnect emerging in the midst of the AI boom. I discuss why this disconnect provides investors with one of the most attractive high-yielding investment opportunities I have ever seen with near-term catalysts. I also share some of my top picks to profit from this disconnect.
