This Is The Start Of The Selloff, Not The End

I have been in and out of Linn Energy (LINE) for quite a while now. Good example. The stock crashed along with all the rest of the MLPs but it is still paying dividends of $.10 per share, per MONTH. This may not continue for long, but at the current price that amounts to a 62% annual dividend. While the best you can do on most investments is 5% a year, LINE is paying 5% per month.

I am not suggesting that you run out an buy it, but at these prices I can afford to gamble on it. Of course you have to keep a close eye on it and be ready to get out if and when they actually suspend dividend payments and the stock collapses completely.

My investment strategery saw me through 2008 and it is working just fine now: Buy only top quality companies on the dips, be ready to sell on the bounce and, nowadays with a major crash imminent, hedge with inverse ETFs like DOG, DXD, SH and SDS which have given me a nice return well north of 10% over the past two weeks.
