Dear Wealth Daily Reader,
I hate to say it.
But we’ve got another doozey on the horizon.
… One that’s going to suck $1.5 trillion right from under our feet — 50% MORE than the subprime crisis did!
It’s the second wave of foreclosures.
And there’s nothing we can do to stop it.
But for reasons I’m about to share, our in-house options guru Ian Cooper isn’t worried a bit.
Scratch that. He’s down right thrilled!
You see, he recently uncovered a unique group of companies that are guaranteed to skyrocket from property defaults over the next two years.
Alone, they could launch as high as 337%. But Ian’s found a way for you, right now, to collect as much as 1,000% from each of them!
It’s all detailed for you below, in our first-release report!
But you’ll need to hurry. The gems he’s found are already starting to launch.
To your wealth,
Brian Hicks

Why 20 million properties will be foreclosed by 2012… and how it could make you filthy rich!
Dear Reader:
Several months ago, you barely heard a peep from anyone about the second — and more personal — leg of the financial crisis.
… A tsunami of foreclosures (several times worse than today’s levels) heading straight to your front doors, starting this spring!
…truncated…
YLO.UN has already announced a reduction in dividend payments when they convert to a corporation later this year. Surprisingly the units have gone up nicely since the announcement. I guess uncertainty isn’t appreciated by the market.
$0.80 annual distribution to be maintained until December 2010
Starting in January 2011, initial dividend set at $0.65 per year to be paid monthly
Conversion to take place by the end of 2010, subject to unitholders’ vote
Dividend policy intended to provide shareholders a sustainable source of income
Montreal (Quebec), February 11, 2010 – Yellow Pages Income Fund (TSX: YLO.UN) announced details on its path to conversion from an income trust to a traditional corporate structure (the “Conversion”). In light of past legislative changes to the business income trust market, the Conversion is expected to provide a more attractive environment for YPG’s securities while broadening the potential investor base.
Dividend Policy Post Conversion
The Company will continue to distribute $0.80 annually until December 2010. YPG’s Board of Trustees has approved the dividend policy post conversion. Commencing with the January 31, 2011 dividend (record date), the dividend policy will initially be set at $0.0542 per share on a monthly basis or $0.65 annually. This level of dividend is consistent with the preliminary dividend policy communicated last May and reflects a payout ratio of 60% to 70% of cash earnings per share. Please refer to Exhibit 1 below for detailed monthly payments.
Thanks Patrick, should have double checked whether they’d already planned the cut — good point. This doesn’t bother me as a basic strategy, and I’ve focused before on a trust that’s done something similar (AltaGas and their planned cut later this year), since clearly investors do like the removal of uncertainty. But frankly, even with that near-20% cut in the dividend I’m pretty uncertain about their ability to keep paying it for the next ten years or more — or growing it.
What’s all the hype about Greenland ?
Stock is trading at a 33.82% premium to NAV crazy stay away from this!!!
Historical data shows this should correct. I heard some say never pay above NAV (discount 10% is best) and in any case never buy at 34% NAV. Just to correct to NAV you could lose 34% of the stock value.
