▼ + stars: | 2024-10-09 | by ( Filip De Mott | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

Billionaire investor Bill Gross says the stock market's record-breaking run is set to slow. His favorite investments at the moment include MLP pipelines and municipal income funds. "No bear market, but it's not the same bull market anymore," Gross said, adding that equities are set for "low buy positive" returns going forward. He also sees municipal income funds as a worthwhile investment, as many have offered over 7% tax-free yields. Gross named the DWS Municipal Income Trust as one example but noted that there are between 20 and 30 others to choose from.

▼ + stars: | 2024-03-08 | by ( Michelle Fox | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Dividend stocks usually take a hit when they decrease their payouts, but investors may not want to count some of them out, according to Morgan Stanley. While many companies instituted large dividend decreases, there are several that announced dividend cuts of 30% or less. Shares of Annaly are up 1% in 2024, and the dividend yield is 13.3%. That's about a 20% quarter-over-quarter decrease, per Morgan Stanley. Shares are up 10% this year, and they offer a dividend yield of 0.4%.

☆ A leading fund manager warns that regional banks could cause 'financial Armageddon' — unless the government makes 2 crucial moves immediately
▼ + stars: | 2023-03-19 | by ( James Faris | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +8 min

Financial stress stemming from Silicon Valley Bank's collapse could spread, a top fund manager said. But that in itself is becoming an under-the-radar issue, he noted, as large banks' strength is now coming at the expense of regional banks — even those without issues. Since most regional banks aren't classified as "systemically important," their clients would be out of luck in the event of a bank failure, Hatfield noted. Unless the FDIC insures all deposits at all banks, Hatfield said that there will be no reason to put money in a non-protected regional bank. So they'll have a negative interest margin, they'll lose money, they'll get downgraded, and they'll go out of business."

☆ 'Bond King' Bill Gross likes these REITs as Fed rate hikes hit the housing market
▼ + stars: | 2022-12-20 | by ( Tanaya Macheel | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Bill Gross has been investing in real estate investment trusts, also known as REITs. Nevertheless, he described the state of residential real estate as being "a little bit better" than commercial, and the Bond King has spotted an opportunity in mortgage REITs with yields of 14% to 16%. Generally, REITs are companies that own or finance income-producing real estate, or real estate-related assets, across property sectors. Gross noted that both Annaly and AGNC are "volatile" but said the spreads have widened "so much." Earlier this year, Gross predicted the Fed would be unable to raise its benchmark interest rate above 2.5% without cracking the economy.
