Special Report: 7 Steps to Protect Your Portfolio While You Still Reap Market Gains: Step #5 Bet on a very hot summer
I think that rather than trying to hedge market or sector direction in the 2024 market, I’m going to look for plays on the long side that will gain even if the market goes nowhere or tumbles, In other words, in financial jargon, I’m going to look for sectors and stocks that are uncorrelated with market direction rather than looking for sectors and stocks that are anti-correlated (where my gains depend on a downturn in the market.) That’s the logic with Step #5 today. Go long natural gas ahead of what is shaping up as a really, really hot summer.
Special Report: It’s a New World for Dividend Investors: Pick #10 ABBV
Bookkeeping. I added AbbVie (ABBV) as Pick #10 for My New World for Dividend Investing Special Report (You can find it in the Special Report section of this site along with all the content on this market and its trends for Dividend Income investors. But I’m reposting it as a stand alone pick so no one misses it. AbbVie (ABBV) has been a long-time member of the Dividend Portfolio with a gain of 213% since my January 29, 2020 pick. The question right now is Should it be a top dividend pick going forward? After all, the appreciation in the stock has dropped the dividend yield to 3.67%. (Add in a modest yield from buybacks and the total yield goes to 4.18%.) The most pressing question has been What will replace the $20 billion in annual revenue from the company’s blockbuster arthritis drug Humira (adalimumab) now that it faces competition from biosimilar generics? Now we’ve got some numbers to answer that question and to me they add up to AbbVie remaining a top dividend pick.
