Americans love a comeback story. And in the financial world, comeback stories can represent lucrative investment opportunities. From time to time, good companies get in trouble. During these periods, you can sometimes lock in a double-digit yield for life. Of course, not all turnarounds play out. Whenever you see a high yield, you know it comes with higher risk. But for those of us who can stomach the ups and downs, these situations can be quite profitable.
Take CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (NYSE:CBL). The company operates a portfolio of shopping malls, most of which are anchored by struggling department store tenants. Falling rental income, increasing vacancy rates, and a large debt load have hammered profits over the past few years. That situation has started to change, however. CBL has plowed millions of dollars into renovating its existing properties, transforming malls from shopping destinations into entertainment centers. The landlord has diversified its tenant base to boost sagging foot traffic, adding everything from gyms and restaurants to arcades and hotels.
