Six Yielding ETFs to Keep Your Portfolio Safe

With a yield of 4.81% and an expense ratio of 0.56%, the Amplify CWP Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (DIVO) holds large-cap companies that have a strong history of dividend growth. It also uses a covered call strategy on individual stocks to offer high total returns.

That strategy attempts to generate income through dividends and short-term covered calls in an effort to increase cash flow and consistent annual income. In addition, with that strategy, the EDIP holds blue-chip stocks from the S&P 500, the Dow 30 and the S&P 100.

Since it began trading in December 2016, the DIVO ETF ran from a low of about $17.21 to its current price of $42.46 a share for a gain of 147% with a high-yield. Over the same time frame, the S&P 500 returned 174%, and had a median yield of 2.88%. In addition, the DIVO ETF recently paid a dividend of $0.16940 on January 31. Its next pay date is February 28.

Editor Recommendation: Trade Alert:  Beamr Imaging Goes “Supernova”

On the morning of February 12th, I recognized that Beamr Imaging (ticker: BMR) was showing the classic setup pattern of a Supernova stock.  

So I bought in at around $6 a share.  And then – like these Supernova’s can do – it exploded.  Within a few hours the share price hit $34 – more than 5x my original buy in price.

Every $1,000 I put on this trade turned into $5,000 in just a few hours!  That’s the power of finding just one good “Supernova” trade. 

I’m not promising that every Supernova stock will turn out like this.  

But right now we’re finding Supernova setups almost daily.  Oddly enough, it’s all tied to one controversial immigrant.
