High Yield Income Portfolio

Disclaimer: I know that this is not an optimal strategy (I also have a real portfolio). I also know that very few people are interested in this type of portfolio, so feel free to skip the post, you won't miss anything.

I started building this HY Income portfolio about three months ago.

The first position was $QYLE (-1.41%) and now I've gradually added more stocks.

$QYLE (-1.41%) is pretty much the classic when it comes to covered call ETFs and is in my opinion a must have for every portfolio of this type.

$ACRE (+3.72%) I have great confidence in the management of Ares and the company is one of the few MREITs that I trust with my money. ACRE's portfolio is currently being restructured to be more defensive.

$GAIN (-1.01%) Solid monthly dividend payer with some growth. The management seems pretty solid to me.

$OBDC (-0.96%) Since the company has changed its strategy a bit and is now investing more in equity to increase NAV, it is my favorite BDC.

$STHE (+0.32%) PIMCO specializes in high yield funds, in my opinion it is especially important in the high field area that you trust the management, which is why I chose this product.

$DIV (+1.09%) I like the portfolio of royalties and it offers further opportunities for diversification.

$JEGP (-0.04%) I really like the JP Morgan Covered Call ETF strategy, but will possibly exchange it for $JEPI as soon as it is tradable at TR.

$RITM (-0.58%) I like the vision of the CEO and the dividend is double covered.

$SEDY (+0.91%) was recommended to me by a friend.

QYLE is now being saved less, the focus is on the other stocks.

What are your favorite high yield stocks?

I am invested in $QYLE with a full position, so far it has performed as expected, but I have to keep a close eye on it. The $SEDY is held in the ETF portfolio via a savings plan. Otherwise there are some nice stocks for me as a dividend freak, I've put 2 on my whatchlist. My friend this year is $HAUTO as an individual share. I bought it at a good price at the beginning of the year and it has lived up to expectations so far

I also have a few high yielders in my portfolio. Starting with BAT and Imperial Brands, followed by Legal & General, Ares Capital, Owl Rock Capital and Hercules. Last but not least, the two tanker stocks Torm and Hafnia.

I also have the $QYLE as a mini position. Even up 5% YTD, although I've only been in it for caa. 3 months in it. After an initial investment of 1k, I always invest the round-up and the saveback from the Trade Republic card. However, if there is a strong setback on the Nasdaq100, it will take it almost in full but will hardly recover afterwards due to its construction. But just let it run as an experiment and see what happens.

Certainly not the best choice in the 20s, but in the 50s the direction of income investing was exactly to my taste! My income portfolio includes $SPYI $QQQI $IWMI $PFFA $PBDC $XEI $DEMD $STW $BRLA $BRWM

What do you think of $PFLT in this regard?

The figures have also been continuously high yield for 13-14 years.

Interesting topic, but I wouldn't choose BDCs that are gradually declining in price or dividends.

I chose my stocks based on their performance since 2007, especially stocks that have outperformed the s&p500 in TR since then.

So far, $ARCC $HTGC $MAIN has turned out to be extremely solid and crisis-resistant, and I added $JEGP when it became tradable.

Otherwise, I can recommend Ruben Wunderlich's channel on the subject on YouTube, very good impressions on this, perceived, unpopular topic.

However, my high-yield share is "only" ~30%, 70% is made up of basic world ETFs $FGEQ $TDIV and some us $WTEF, I've heard that leverage and bonds are currently in vogue 😄

Luckily JEPQ is coming soon QYLE I wouldn't want. BDCs are cool.
