One of my favorite income machines has just acquired one of its smaller cross-town neighbors. It’s a master limited partnership (MLP) that’s grown payouts year after year, not to mention serious long-term capital gains. For those who missed it, I made the case for why income-hungry investors should take a serious look at MLPs in 2022 in this article. It’s one of the few areas of the market that still offer high yields – not to mention serious upside. The thing is, the market seems to be completely uninterested in this (and other) MLPs right now.

One of my favorite income machines has just acquired one of its smaller cross-town neighbors. It’s a master limited partnership (MLP) that’s grown payouts year after year, not to mention serious long-term capital gains. For those who missed it, I made the case for why income-hungry investors should take a serious look at MLPs in 2022 in this article.

As you know, these come from our colleague Jimmy Butts and his research team over at Top Stock Advisor. We’ve told you just how profitable some of these predictions have been in the past. We’ve also made the case for why it makes sense to carve out a little space in your portfolio to swing for the fences with high-upside picks like these. But what we haven’t done yet is really dive into the specific predictions themselves. So today, let’s do just that. I’m going to tell you about one of our predictions that’s pretty straightforward. In fact, if you’ve been following along with us, then you know we’ve seen it coming from a mile away, beginning last year. If you haven’t guessed by now, I’m talking about inflation.
