Trump not back in office but already pushing his agenda and negotiating with world leaders
News story speaks volumes This, from the Dec. 16 Chicago Tribune: “A former FBI informant pleaded guilty on Monday to lying about a phony bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.” The informant, Alexander Smirnov, told the FBI a Ukrainian energy company paid the Bidens $5 million each around 2015. Smirnov also claimed Russian officials had recordings from a meeting in a Kiev hotel wired for sound and controlled by Russians. Both are fabrications. Smirnov’s indictment reveals Hunter Biden never even traveled to Ukraine. The article continues, “No evidence has emerged that Joe Biden acted corruptly or accepted bribes as president or in his previous office as vice president.” Smirnov’s lies triggered the Republican effort in Congress to investigate the Bidens and a House impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, despite acknowledging they could not confirm Smirnov’s allegations were true. The Russians spread this story as part of their disinformation campaign. Republicans spread it as part of their presidential campaign. All too many American voters swallowed it hook, line and sinker. Note that Smirnov was indicted on Feb. 14 for making a false statement and creating a false and fictitious record, almost nine months before the U.S. presidential election. As an American voter, how does this make you feel? I can understand why an enemy, Russia, would spread malicious disinformation. I’ll never understand why an American political party, the party of Lincoln, would also spread misinformation.

However, high-yield options can be remarkably resilient and strategic additions to a portfolio when chosen wisely. Yields are essentially a reward for investor patience and risk. Dividend stocks with strong cash flows and sustainable business models can keep those juicy payouts flowing. BCE Take ( ), for example. Yes, the dividend stock has dipped about 30% from its 52-week highs. Yet its forward dividend yield now hovers around a whopping 10.7%. Why does BCE still stand tall? Its operating cash flow of $7.48 billion ensures it can keep paying out dividends while handling its hefty $40 billion debt. Even though quarterly revenues slipped by 1.8% year over year, BCE’s scale and diversified telecom operations mean it’s still a cornerstone of Canadian infrastructure. This company isn’t just surviving. It’s investing in future growth, and rural broadband expansions, to maintain its competitive edge. NorthWest Now consider ( ), a high-yield darling in the sector. Its 7.23% dividend yield isn’t just a flashy number. It’s backed by a portfolio with a 96% occupancy rate and leases averaging 13.5 years. These long-term contracts are gold in the real estate world, especially since 83% of them include rent indexation to guard against inflation. Sure, the real estate investment trust (REIT) faced pressure in 2023, with adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) per unit dropping due to higher interest costs. Yet a 5.1% rise in same-property net operating income (NOI) shows that its assets are still performing robustly. For income investors, NWH.UN offers both stability and growth potential. Algonquin In contrast, ( ) exemplifies why not all high-yield stocks are worth chasing. At a glance, its 5.41% dividend yield seems appealing, but a deeper dive reveals troubling signs. The dividend stock faced declining revenue growth and significant challenges in managing its $7.48 billion debt, leading to a sharp dividend cut earlier this year. While its balance sheet shows some promise of stabilization, its high payout ratio of over 70% signals ongoing fragility. AQN’s management needs to refocus on strengthening the core business, but for now, it’s a risk many income-seeking investors might prefer to sidestep. Bottom line High-yield investing, as a strategy, is about more than just chasing big numbers. It requires digging into the fundamentals. Understanding how a company generates its cash flow, how it allocates that cash, and whether it’s positioned for future success. BCE’s dividend payout ratio may look alarming on paper, but its cash generation and market positioning allow it to defy the skeptics. Similarly, while NWH.UN has seen its net asset value decline, its robust leasing strategy, and inflation-linked rents act as a solid defence against market volatility. On the flip side, avoiding pitfalls like AQN is equally important. Not every high-yield stock deserves a spot in your portfolio, especially when its financial health is shaky. With a discerning eye and a focus on sustainability, high-yield investing can be more than just a strategy. It can be a winning formula for long-term success.

Syrian insurgents reach the capital's suburbs. Worried residents flee and stock up on supplies BEIRUT (AP) — Insurgents’ stunning march across Syria is gaining speed with news that they have reached the suburbs of the capital of Damascus. The government on Saturday was forced to deny rumors that President Bashar Assad had fled the country. The rebels’ moves around Damascus were reported by an opposition war monitor and a rebel commander. They came after the Syrian army withdrew from much of southern part of the country, leaving more areas, including two provincial capitals, under the control of opposition fighters. The advances in the past week were among the largest in recent years by opposition factions. The factions are by a group that has its origins in al-Qaida and is considered a terrorist organization by the U.S. and the United Nations. Trump isn't back in office but he's already pushing his agenda and negotiating with world leaders NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump is making threats, traveling abroad, and negotiating with world leaders. He has more than a month-and-a-half to go before he’s sworn in for a second term. But the president-elect is already moving aggressively to not only fill his Cabinet and outline policy goals, but also to try to achieve his priorities. In recent days, Trump has threatened to impose a 25% tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico, two of the country’s largest trading partners. That led to emergency calls and a visit. And he's warned of “ALL HELL TO PAY” if Hamas doesn't release the hostages still being held captive in Gaza. South Korea's president avoids an impeachment attempt over short-lived martial law SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s embattled President Yoon Suk Yeol has avoided an opposition-led attempt to impeach him over his short-lived imposition of martial law. Most of Yoon's ruling party lawmakers boycotted a parliamentary vote Saturday to deny a two-thirds majority needed to suspend his presidential powers. The scrapping of the motion is expected to intensify protests calling for Yoon’s ouster and deepen political chaos in South Korea. A survey suggests a majority of South Koreans support the president’s impeachment. Yoon’s martial law declaration drew criticism from his own ruling conservative People Power Party. But the party also apparently fears losing the presidency to liberals. UnitedHealthcare CEO's shooting opens a door for many to vent frustrations over insurance The fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare's CEO has opened the door for many people to vent their frustrations and anger over the insurance industry.

The DNC chair candidates discuss Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and winning Latino voters SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Four Democrats are running for Democratic National Committee chair, looking to take on the task of reinvigorating a party demoralized by a second loss to President-elect Donald Trump. Others may still get into the race as Democrats reckon with what went wrong in the 2024 election, which saw Trump gain with nearly every demographic group in a decisive repudiation of the incumbent party. The 448 DNC members will elect a successor for outgoing Chair Jaime Harrison on Feb. 1. The party’s Rules and Bylaws Committee is scheduled to meet next week to approve rules for the contest. 100-year-old Pearl Harbor survivor recalls confusion and chaos during Japanese bombing 83 years ago PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii (AP) — The bombing of Pearl Harbor 83 years ago launched the United States into World War II. Two survivors are planning to return to the Hawaii military base on Saturday for a remembrance ceremony on the attack's anniversary. They are each over 100 years old. They will join active-duty troops, veterans and members of the public for a remembrance ceremony hosted by the Navy and the National Park Service. A third survivor was planning to join them but had to cancel due to health issues. The bombing killed more than 2,300 U.S. servicemen. An explosion destroys an apartment block in a Dutch city, killing at least 3 and injuring others THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — An explosion and fire has rocked a neighborhood in the Dutch city of The Hague, killing three people and injuring other people and destroying several apartments. The cause of the disaster is unclear. Emergency authorities said four people were rescued from the rubble and taken to the hospital. The mayor said rescuers were no longer looking for survivors but for eventual bodies, but could not specify how many people might still be unaccounted for. Residents of the northeastern neighborhood of Mariahoeve in The Hague heard a huge bang and screams before dawn. Dutch authorities have deployed a specialized urban search and rescue team to find victims. Do weighted blankets help you sleep better? Here's what to know NEW YORK (AP) — Weighted blankets are a popular choice to warm up in cold weather, but research on their effectiveness is limited. Such blankets come with extra heft in the form of glass beads, pellets or cotton. They're also more expensive than regular blankets. Scientists think the added pressure could calm the brain’s fight-or-flight response or signal the brain to produce what’s called the love hormone. There isn’t a ton of research on whether weighted blankets actually work, and the studies that do exist are on small groups. Experts say there’s no harm in giving them a try if you're willing to splurge.
