I’ve been getting greedier and lazier, so I started looking at high-yield stocks. How do you like these?
(AINV: 6.62 -3.07%), 9.88% – Apollo Investment Corp. Diversified investments, interesting.

(JNK: 38.23 +0.10%), 9.28% – SPDR Barclays Capital High Yield B. Still know nothing about bonds.

(PGF: 17.0459 -1.18%), 7.06% – PowerShares Fin. Preferred Port. Financials, but preferred, that’s good.

(PVX: 0.00 N/A), 8.77% – Provident Energy Trust. Hmmm, natural gas. Then maybe not. Chart looks like a rising wedge, too, yes?

(VGR: 16.50 +0.12%), 9.09% – Vector Group Ltd. Cigarettes! is this evil?

I just noticed Yahoo has a new section called “Market Pulse”. They totally stole it from me! I coined the term at least a year ago
Ya, ok, theirs is a slightly different concept.
I’m looking for a stock to replace my (LYG: 1.61 -4.73%) as I plan to sell at least half of it soon.
Here are my current picks. It’s purely accidental that 4/6 start with an A
Here are the quotes:
(ASX: 4.65 -0.43%), (ATML: 7.07 -2.62%), (AWC: 3.50 -2.23%), (CIM: 2.7679 -2.54%), (SDRL: 35.6501 -0.92%), (SPIL: 5.17 -1.52%).
