Usually don't buy individual stocks, these two are worth a look for Income
HI, these were recommended to me and of course when I bought them several months they immediately headed down, so I just bought more to lower average cost. One is in the black, other still minor red.
You may know: GOV - owns lots of property which it rents to only the fed government - i think dividend & yield = 10.47%. Still priced nice.
Second, WTR, does water purification for municipalities, etc., Price still well in range and dividend & yield = 2.75%
Just fyi, take a look and you decide (of course) and any comments or similar better stocks for income & safety reco's, thanks too!
Best,
RJL

I don't think I would buy individual stocks as a means to achieve safety. Stocks that have their price propped up by high dividends are likely to decline when interest rates go up.

For what it's worth, GOV had a holding company with very similar name and that was bought out buy GOV at same time, saw that as good. Similar situation is ref. in article you posted: HPT/TA, is set-up GOV had before "(NYSE:HPT) appeared to operating a self-serving sale/leaseback platform as a means to tap into high-yielding off-balance assets owned by TravelCenters of America (NYSE:TA).

It's a decent site.
I would read Brad Thomas for REITs, and Chuck Carnevale for dividend growth and company analysis.
You need a free account sign up.
