The direction of interest rates continues to be debated, but for investors seeking a high yield that debate is just sound and fury signifying nothing of any importance. After all, we’re talking about the possibility of just a 0.25% increase in Fed Funds, so it’s not like there will suddenly be all sort of high-yielding fixed-income alternatives to stocks. It will be a long time before we see traditional fixed-income investments like bank CDs and treasuries offer the type of yields investors need to meet their income goals.
One tool that we can use is the Piotroski F-score. The F-score was developed by Professor Joseph Piotroski to help identify stocks with the potential and probability of moving higher in prices using data points from financial statements. The stock gets one point for each of the nine conditions that is met, and the higher the score the better the chance you have a winning stock. By limiting our high-yield portfolio to stocks with high F-scores we improve our chances of earning the income we need while growing our capital base: Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE:LVS), Century Link Inc (NYSE:CTL) and StoneMor Partners (NYSE:STONE).
