GPIQ: Buy Monthly Income From The Nasdaq While Uncertainty Is High (NASDAQ:GPIQ)

This article was written by

Financial analyst by day and a seasoned investor by passion, I’ve been involved in the world of investing for over 15 years and honed my skills in analyzing lucrative opportunities within the market.I specialize in uncovering high quality dividend stocks and other assets that offer potential for long term-growth that pack a serious punch for bill-paying potential. I use myself as an example that with a solid base of classic dividend growth stocks, sprinkling in some Business Development Companies, REITs, and Closed End Funds can be a highly efficient way to boost your investment income while still capturing a total return that follows traditional index funds. I created a hybrid system between growth and income and manage to still capture a total return that is on par with the S&P.

Analyst’s Disclosure: I/we have a beneficial long position in the shares of GPIQ either through stock ownership, options, or other derivatives. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha).

Kerry Dennis was in her mid 50s, managing a 200-person team at Fidelity Investments, when she began having trouble keeping details straight. A simple email took an hour to compose.

“There’s nothing wrong,” she told herself—until she broke down. During a call with her boss to review a campaign she had been working on for months, Dennis said her mind went blank.
