Motley Fool: Income Investor

Well rounded, and a good value

I use this in conjunction with Morningstar's Dividend Investor to cover the income investing space. This one would also work well as a stand alone. Less directive than Morningstar and a lot more choices, and depending on your perspective that could be good or bad. This one is not as conservative as Morningstar. That said, if you're putting together your own portfoilos of dividend or dividend/growth you have a lot of stocks to pick from here. I like the buy below price, upside potential stats as well as and the very frequent updates.

This is a keeper

The great thing about the Motley Fool websites are the various premium subsciptions one can try for free and then either cancel or stick with the service. I am currently trying this service out for free and i must admit I am very impressed. They have six Buy First stocks all with dividend yields in the 2%-5.1% range, all good companies. Then they have a list of a bunch of other companies some with avg yields in the 2%-5% category and some, even moderate risk ones, with higher yields, that they reccomend to buy ot hold . They have a great newish risk rating system, send out a report on earnings and if they feel something on their list should be changed as to their potential upside value or put on hold or any other news about a company and their position mid month and at the end of the month.

Give them a shot for 30 days, worst that happens is you get to find out their dividend list and can go from there if you feel comfortable.

**Oh, inside hint: if you try out one of their newsletters then unsubscribe, you will get a special price on future newsletters if you decide to try them out!

Really?

Can't believe these guys still have a website. I read their book back in high school and they make everything seem so simple. Just buy those 10 bagger stocks and compound your way to being a millionaire. No long term track record from these guys means not real imo.

The following review is from www.stockgumshoe.com

they do a great job

I have subscribed to this for a few months now and think they do a great job of finding the best dividend stocks and carefully analyzing whether each company has got what it takes to survive (lots of back-up cash, low debt, etc.) and whether its dividend will be preserved intact. They are currently working to narrow the list to the “50 Best.” All the articles are interesting and I learn a lot about various industries. It’s all written in a way that’s easy to understand...
