Find Out What You Need to do You did the things you were supposed to do. You paid your mortgage on time and added regularly to your retirement account. You planned well and looked forward to a joyful retirement. Now forces out of your control have whacked your retirement accounts. And your home You may be facing what millions of near retirees are already doing: heading back into the workforce.
It can be demoralizing. You worked hard for the day when you could leave the daily grind behind …there are places in the world you want to see…passions you want to pursue. But now it’s back to scrambling for jobs and trying to save enough to finally retire. Welcome to the Investment Twilight Zone The Investment Twilight Zone is where the financial world you counted on seems to have vanished. The question now is: Can you get back the future you had planned for? I’m here to tell you that you can, if you act quickly. And I’ll show you how. I’m Richard Band, and I have been writing Profitable Investing—the most successful investment newsletter for low-risk growth—for 19 years. My newsletter is not about chasing after the latest stock market bling—bright, shiny stocks that look great but don’t hold up. There are other places to do that. My entire strategy is to grow your overall portfolio safely and securely, and to take advantage of solid growth opportunities. It’s an approach that has proven itself for almost two decades. We’ve been through a number of economic downturns during that time… …The crash of ’87, the first Gulf war, the dot-com bust in 2000…and each time my approach has helped my subscribers come out well ahead. I know my approach will get you through the stormy economy we’re in and enable you to capitalize on some great opportunities I have discovered. I have one group of stocks to snap you our of the investment twilight zone by giving you regular cash you can count on, plus put you in a perfect position for capital growth. To give you some idea of its real value, let’s take a look at what one investor is doing—an investor I call… …The Ultimate Insider One day a few months ago, the Ultimate Insider plunked down about $4,161,000 to buy shares in the company I’m recommending. You might think that’s quite a chunk of money for one stock. But later in the day, he decided he wanted more, and bought another $669,000 of the same stock. Guess what? It still wasn’t enough for him. The next day he bought another $167,000. Total: $4,997,000 in 2 days. (By the way, a few months previous to that, he had purchased $9,609,600 of the same stock.) When it comes to believing in a stock, these kind of numbers speak for themselves. So who is this Ultimate Insider? He is none other than a Director of the company I’m recommending. Whenever top insiders like CEOs, CFOs, board directors and the like are buying their own stock – in significant amounts—something is up. You can count on it! They are convinced their stock is undervalued and are putting their own money behind that conviction. In this case, a grand total of $14,606,600. So what’s so special about this company that an insider is willing to put up so much of his own money, so quickly? It’s part of an investment class called Master Limited Partnerships (MLP). MLPs are an investment tool that was created only about 25 years ago…and gives investors many of the advantages of a limited partnership, yet trades just like a stock. In the case of my recommendation, it’s on the NYSE. And when you look at what’s been happening recently with MLPs, in general, you notice something interesting. It’s not just the MLP insider I mentioned buying up his company’s stock. In just the first 3 months of this year, insiders have been snapping up their own MLP stocks like fashionistas at a designer close-out sale. From January to March, they’ve bought $59 million of their own stock. What gives? Why MLPs? Why now? It’s Money in Your Pocket Every Quarter Almost all are energy-related (oil and natural gas) pipelines—the pipes that distribute oil and gas throughout the country. MLPs pay healthy dividends. Only they don’t call them dividends—they call them cash distributions. In any case, it’s money in your pocket every quarter. And MLPs aggressively aim to keep increasing the amount every year. The MLP I’m recommending pays a 7% cash distribution. When you’re stuck in the investment twilight zone it’s nice to know you can count on at least a 7% return on your money regularly. Compare that to Treasuries paying about 4%. In addition, MLPs have proven to be excellent defensive investments during tough times. They have outperformed the broader market in three of the last four economic slowdowns. Here’s why… MLPs are essentially toll collectors. They collect fees to allow oil and gas to flow through their pipelines. The demand for their service has been steadily increasing. But let’s say the economic slowdown reduces demand. Will that hurt their revenues? Not really. You see, pipeline customers pay fixed reservation fees—in advance. Imagine if you had to pay a fixed fee in advance to cross bridges and tunnels—whether you use them or not. That’s why you can count on MLPs to perform well even during this economic rough patch. And there’s even more good news in store for MLPs. We Need Billions of New Pipelines Industry experts estimate that the U.S. needs $100 billion of new natural gas infrastructure over the next decade and billions more in crude oil and refined petroleum products processing, storage, and transportation. Just recently, a new supply basin for natural gas and oil was found in The Rockies, and more pipelines will be needed to distribute it to customers. The increasing demand for oil and gas has fueled the impressive performance of MLP stocks. Over the past 15 years, MLPs have outperformed the S&P 500 with a cumulative gain of 886% versus 549% for the broader market, and 18.3% versus 11.1% on a compound annualized basis. So if you’re looking for capital appreciation, in addition to dividends, I urge you to consider master limited partnerships. On top of a 7% cash distribution, I expect the share price of my recommendation to climb 7-9% this year. Add the two together and you have the opportunity to earn a 15% gain this year. And with the prospects for MLPs being as bright as they are, you can pretty much count on that kind of double-digit gain year after year.
Get in Before it’s Too Late Like some other sectors, MLPs are currently undervalued. You can get into my Top MLP recommendation now at a good price and look forward to excellent profits quite soon. Why am I convinced that investors are about to recognize the real value of this MLP and push up the price? Something is about to happen that will hit investors right where it hurts. Something that will cause a huge exodus to MLPs... The presidential election. If the Democrats win the election you can kiss the current 15% tax rate on dividends goodbye. How high will it go? Some say around 25%. But the smart money won't wait until the election. They'll recognize the probability of an increase and look to position themselves ahead of it in tax-free investments. MLPs will look mighty attractive when investors realize that you are NOT taxed on the cash distributions from an MLP. Then fasten your seat belt when word of the tax and appreciation advantages of MLPs gets out. But at that point the kind of gains you might have received if you had positioned yourself earlier will be gone. Don’t get me wrong. MLPs will still be a wise choice. But it will be too late to achieve the whopping gains many of my subscribers will enjoy.
