- grcjr: #YIELDHOGS $UNIT this pig yields $9.09%, currently $0.15 per quarter. Next xdiv early December. Chart looks interesting. Typical drop after xdiv . Watching for a move back up, I'm looking to nibble and then watching for next divx action.
- grcjr: #YIELDHOGS - I have noticed over the past few weeks that many of the hogs are inching up. With stability and another stimulus some of these will show improvement. It will still take time to get back to the old levels. I'm not piling in but I am looking to do some buying. Looking premarket today: $AAIC is up 3.05%. $ARCC is up 2.36%. $UNIT is up 2.14%. $OXSQ is up 1.52%. Price moves like this are not what I expect. Some on @jan2138 's list are REITs. Some mortgage related. All have been great dividend payers. Pick a few and check them out, reading earnings, watching divs. I'm not calling a breakout ... at this time. It may still take months or even a year to see which recover and which do not. Could be some M&A.
- grcjr: $UNIT #yieldhogs - On a weekly chart I see a 2 year cup. The yield is reported to be 5.08%, so not what it used to be. The stock price is not what it used to be. I added a nibble to my tracking position. Long term hold.
- rnrdallas1939: I have noticed a few posts about #YEILDHOGS so I thought I would post the last list that jan2138 posted on the SMM website. I have culled a few that are no longer listed or dropped the div . $AGNC $AI $ARCC $BCFS $CIM $CLNY $CNSL $LUMN (was CTL) $DX $ERN $ETJ $ETW $ETY $EXG $GSBD $HRZN $IVR $LADR $MAIN $MRCC $NEWT $NLY $NMFC $NRE $NRZ $NYMT $NYMTO $OFS $OXLC $OXSQ $PNNT $PSEC $SAR $TCPC $$TPVG $TSVG $TWO $UNIT $UTF $VGR I have others, that I use, but this was jan2138 list. Now remember this is just a list not a recommendation just a place to start. The system is simple buy, get div, sell "rinse wash repeat". There is more to the process but it has to your process.
- Forexpro: @rnrdallas1939 $AGNC $AI $ARCC $BCFS $CIM $CLNY $CNSL $LUMN $DX $ERN $ETJ $ETW $ETY $EXG $GSBD $HRZN $IVR $LADR $MAIN $MRCC $NEWT $NLY $NMFC $NRE $NRZ $NYMT $NYMTO $OFS $OXLC $OXSQ $PNNT $PSEC $SAR $TCPC $TPVG $TSVG $TWO $UNIT $UTF $VGR #YEILDHOGS Thanks, MrDallas1939, Be it noted that "BCFS" should be "BCSF" (for "Bain Capital Specialty Finance") which I've been long for quite some time. It went ex- a dividend of 0.34 today, and continues to pay out north of 12 percent. I will admit that the folks at the fund whose portfolio manager first mentioned the ticker to me refer to it as "(S)inking (F)ast", but that isn't fair on most days. The outfit continues to own quite a lot of shares. Here's hoping that you're doing well; all the best!
- rnrdallas1939: @Forexpro $AGNC $AI $ARCC $BCSF $CIM $CLNY $CNSL $LUMN $DX $ERN $ETJ $ETW $ETY $EXG $GSBD $HRZN $IVR $LADR $MAIN $MRCC $NEWT $NLY $NMFC $NRE $NRZ $NYMT $NYMTO $OFS $OXLC $OXSQ $PNNT $PSEC $SAR $TCPC $TPVG $TSVG $TWO $UNIT $UTF $VGR #YEILDHOGS
- phgruver: For this who might be interested, $UNIT is up 23%, today, on strong earnings, an upgrade by Raymond James, and a deal to sell 90% of it's tower sites to Melody Investments. I'm not sure what any of this really means, and I don't have time, right now, to dig into the earnings report, but a heads up anyway.

- Danzguy: @86944T $NEWT $UNIT $HRZN $OXY $F $MITTT $RWT $NRZ #Yield Also look at $TPVG! Dana turned me on to that one a few years ago and it has performed sooo well!
- mradams0621: @phgruver $NLY Thanks for your post. I'm trying to get out of it but not when it's working. Building positions in $MAIN and $DSL simply based on "Dana likes these better". Interesting that even the bad hogs can be pretty good. I built my position in $NLY back in 2013 at $15, $12, and $12 and it's done nothing but go down from that level. But with the reinvested divvy's, my cost basis is now $6. with the position up 68%. Not great, but I'm take it. That being said, I also lost everything in Windstream, almost all in $OTEL, and $UNIT is working it's way to zero. So not sure hogs are great without someone to hold your hand. Dana was such a blessing. What a loss.
- phgruver: @mradams0621 $NLY $MAIN $DSL $OTEL $UNIT As I have said before, high yield = high risk! You have to watch it carefully. I got blindsided by $UNIT (I didn't fully appreciate the litigation risk) and have watched $NAT go down to $2. You've got to do the homework (and I didn't even know what the assignment was....) I'm currently in $NRZ, $NEWT, $ARCC, and $MAIN primarily on Dana's recommendations, although I take full ownership of my own entries. Like you, my cost basis in $NLY is less than $6/share, because of the dividends.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs #Ex-Dividend In addition to $NRZ, the following are ex-div. today: $NYMTO, $CIM, $CLNY, $EARN, $MITT, $GSBD, $BCSF, $UNIT, $AI.
- RedLeaf1: @jan2138 $NRZ $NYMTO $CIM $CLNY $EARN $MITT $GSBD $BCSF $UNIT $AI #Ex-Dividend Thanks for the posts. Received my dividends in $NEWT today. Nice.
- jan2138: @issues $UNIT It's tempting but there are too many issues which could crush it at any time. They continue to negotiate the terms of the lease with WIN which could end up affecting negatively on cash flow. Also, there are many law suits to deal with which will take time and treasure. Too many uncertainties even for me.
- issues: @jan2138 $UTF Dana I noticed $UNIT is paying a dividend again. Are you interested: 7 Days Before Ex-Dividend Date - December 30, 2019 $0.22 Dividend is 10.67%. Not too shabby, eh?
-
DAN: ...
$UNIT -- “I bought at 16 and am holding it as a dividend play. New member.” Must have some kind of risk management. Hold this now. Do NOT add to the position. Needs to clear $9 bucks. Welcome! You’ll get the hang of it!
- gig1: @DAN $AEM $SPX $DJI $NDX $FFTY $BOOT $PRFT $EDU $FNV $RGLD $WPM $DAVA $TXG $LDOS $NOV $TERM $TTC $ZIOP $TDOC $KBH $LITE $TNDM $CSCO $UNIT $FLT violated your stop. Does it still remain on the GSL?
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT In case you did not notice, they declared a .22 dividend up from the last 3 @ .05. Prior to these 4, the dividend was .60 quarterly. I am sure, if you are long, you know the story. Yield rhrn is 14.02%. There is a great deal of uncertainty here so do not just run in for the yield.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $AI $GSBD $IVR $LADR $MAIN $UNIT $WHF report on Thursday, 11/7/19.
- jan2138: $UNIT For those still long and/or interested, they announced today that they will report third quarter 2019 financial results after the close of trading on November 7, 2019. A conference call to discuss those earnings will be held the same day at 4:15 PM Eastern Time.
- jan2138: @vfr777 $UNIT Made a presentation at a GS conference the other day. The CEO's remarks were interesting. You might want to see if you can access the presentation which is on their website.
- vfr777: @jan2138 $UNIT Hi jan2138. Since you had followed this in the past, do you think it will come back from the dead? I didn't sell into the weakness and am holding at a loss. If it is at $8.00 and you had bought at $19 would you cut it or stick with it? I didn't have an automatic sell level for it at the time and thought it would recover.
- jan2138: @vfr777 $UNIT I think it is a long shot for it to come back from the dead. There is still so much uncertainty with the $WIN situation. I haven't stayed current on all that is going on, but there are those who feel they may make it. But, I certainly wouldn't add to it=:+)) I sold mine quite awhile ago @ $8.13, and you see where it is today. I hate to advise you to do either, but I guess it depends on how much you have in it and whether the cash could do more for you in another worthwhile situation. Seems to me it could.
- jan2138: $UNIT This is no longer a high yield issue but because there were quite a few of us long a while back, I thought there might still be some interest in what’s happening. BTW, I am no longer long this one. On 8/6/19, they declared a .05 qtly. div ...
- 86944T: @jan2138 $TCPC Understand your perspective. I stopped out on the long tail this one had yesterday, probably because of the low volume. Bought it back again today at a lower price. However, I still remember $UNIT and glad I am not in it anymore. Thanks for all you’re reports. Very valuable.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT For those who may still be long, they will be reporting after the close on 8/8/19. The CC is scheduled for 4:15 p.m. ET, that same day.
- jan2138: $UNIT There are some $WIN creditors trying to stop the lease payments to $UNIT saying they are excessive. If this were to happen, bye bye $UNIT. However, $UNIT has expressed a difference of opinion. Kenny Gunderman, President and Chief Executive Offi ...
- jan2138: @$UNIT If you are still long or thinking about getting involved in this complicated situation, I would give serious thought to selling your position and those considering, forget it. With all the speculation about the Master lease being renegotiated, the value of the WIN assets, and all of the other unknowns that could affect the price of $UNIT, in short, imho, it's a mess and should be avoided.
- jan2138: @Margi1983 $CNSL I wish . No, I got caught by surprise when they announced it back in April. I decided to hold it after what happened with $UNIT. I sold my shares, and it recovered about 50% off of the low. I am giving $CNSL some time to see if they can show some better numbers when they report without having to pay dividends. If they do, I expect the stock will move up .
- grcjr: @jan2138 $CNSL $UNIT - thanks for the post.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT As you know, Aurelius Capital was the bad guy causing $WIN to go in to bankruptcy and the share price of $UNIT, the WIN spin-off, to tank. Now, it has been revealed that Aurelius has been buying shares in $UNIT. A recent filing shows that they had a position of 1 million shares as of 3/31/19.
- mradams0621: @jan2138 $UNIT $WIN Not sure what that means. I know you sold it on the news. But if you had not, what would you do with it now? I'm still in the hope trade. Another lottery ticket for the grandkids some day maybe. I see it as a long term long shot. Could get out higher some day, but wont be surprised to see it go to zero. What's your "someday" best guess?
- jan2138: @mradams0621 $UNIT $WIN If you are asking about $UNIT, I would definitely hold on to it now that Aurelius has a position in it. They seem to know what they are doing. The consensus was that they would lose the court case involving them and WIN, but ...
- jan2138: @issues $CTL $CNSL You may be smarter than I. I have to admit what happened with $UNIT is the main reason I have held on. I gave away a lot by selling $UNIT when I did only to watch it come back.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT: This is what I was afraid would happen to the uncertainty in this situation. $WIN says in its Q1 earnings release it is evaluating all options on its lease agreement with Uniti, including “renegotiation, recharacterization and rejection of the agreement.” “We believe the lease payment under the master lease is significantly above market. In fact, given the prescriptive valuation process outlined in the lease, we estimate payment could be reduced by 80% or more if the lease were to be renewed in 2030 because of the significant decline in the value of copper facilities, which comprised 54% of the initial value of the lease in 2015,” Windstream CEO Tony Thomas said." This could make matters really difficult for $UNIT.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT: Although this is no longer a high yield issue, I think it deserves an update just to see what has developed since they cut the dividend. Revenues were $261.0M off from $270.8M in Q-4 2018. Revenues had been growing steadily until th ...
- jan2138: @yieldhogs #Earnings FYI: The following report AH today: $GSBD, $PNNT, $MAIN, $UNIT.
- issues: @jan2138 $GSBD $PNNT $MAIN $UNIT #Earnings Are you holding these?
- jan2138: @issues $GSBD $PNNT $MAIN $UNIT #Earnings All but $UNIT.
- issues: @jan2138 $CNSL Dana I know you won't sell it here because of what you did with $UNIT. But is there a point when you will sell it?
- jan2138: @issues $CNSL $UNIT Absolutely but I will wait 'til the knee-jerk reaction is over.
- grcjr: @jan2138 $CNSL $UNIT - I've been completely out of $UNIT for quite some time and out of $CNSL more recently.
- phgruver: @issues $CNSL $UNIT You can still get $5.61 for your $CNSL stock. I'd ditch it. The same thing happened to $WIN and $FTR. When the dividend goes, there goes the only reason to hold these stocks. Landlines are a dying business. They aren't going away, but their use will decline steadily. This is a negative growth business. Not where you want to be. I used to own $WIN and $FTR. I still own some $UNIT, $T, $VZ and $CTL. A very disappointing sector.
- jan2138: @grcjr $CNSL $UNIT I am out of UNIT, CTL and WIN a long time ago.
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT $WIN - There are many to choose from. I don't worry about missing out on one.
- jan2138: $UNIT Get ready for this one. They report AH on 5/9/19 and will hold their CC that same afternoon @ 4:15.
- marrit: @jan2138 $UNIT would you buy rhrn. thanks
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT - wondering if you are in this one. I been out for some time now.
- coldevinc: @jan2138 $UNIT Looks like it is maybe setting up a cup with handle. Possible entry on that chart move................
- jan2138: @marrit $UNIT In short, no.
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT I sold my entire position-too soon, for sure. There is so much uncertainty with the $WIN bankruptcy, the lease terms and whether $WIN will try to adjust the lease payments and the giant debt load and on and on. The market does not seem to be too concerned and many are jumping in anyway gambling that all is going to be ok. I was in it for the dividend which has been cut so, I am out for now and probably forever.
- jan2138: @coldevinc $UNIT Just be careful and know what you are getting in to regardless of what the chart is telling you.
- stairm01: $unit Making a strong run intra day starting at 2:15. Only news found was high call option posted at 1:40.
- jan2138: $UNIT continues its rally having moved up 41% since the recent low set back on 3/8/19. I, regrettably, sold my position thinking that there was only bad news coming which would take it down more. So far, I haven't seen any news either good or bad so I can only guess that there is much "hope" involved.
- 86944T: @jan2138 $UNIT Bought 1/2 position after the stock stopped going down. It’s working real well.
- jan2138: @86944T $UNIT Indeed it is. Keep your eye on it because at any moment, news could come out regarding $WIN's lease payments in the bankruptcy case which would have a major effect on $UNIT's share price. Good news would maintain the rally; bad news the opposite. Keep a tight stop on it.
- jan2138: $UNIT: FYI Uniti Group Is Maintained at Hold by Deutsche Bank. Price Target Cut to $8.00/Share from $20.00.
- jan2138: @KemoSabe $UNIT That's a bank for you. You wonder where they have been through all this.
- KemoSabe: @jan2138 $UNIT Couple of things amaze me about this report. Why did they wait so long to cut the price, and why recommend you hold it at $9.88 if they think it can go to $8.00. Something must be wrong with my arithmetic . I have no position, so I really don't care.
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT - I sold the last of mine earlier this week. Going to need a good reason to start buying it back.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT reported AH yesterday and declared a .05 dividend, down from .60 in the previous quarter. I am assuming you know what has been going on with the $WIN affiliation which is the reason for the reduction in the dividend. Previously, they ...
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT - will be watching the action at the open. I still have a very small position. Oh well. I have been through my #yieldhog holdings with the goal of removing several.
- grcjr: $UNIT - moving up from the open
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT - no clue what to do. Close out or double down?
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT Tough call. It's a gamble to double down or hold. The market seems to think something positive is going to develop. Earnings may be ok last quarter but who knows as time passes with all the uncertainty. It's a given that they will cut the dividend, but will it have an effect on the price? It may not because everyone is expecting it. Many will look at a cut as positive as it frees up cash flow for operating the business. We will know soon.
- stairm01: $UNIT Earnings after the bell. Last chance to sell......or buy.
- jan2138: $UNIT cuts dividend to .05 per share, down from .60. I expected a cut but not this severe. Will be reporting on the results for last quarter.
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT What did you do?
- jan2138: $UNIT traded down to $8.50 in AH market but is coming back. Regular session closed @ $10.00.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT will be reporting on 3/20/19 with a CC @ 4:15 p.m. ET. This is a rescheduled report. Should be interesting.
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT #yieldhogs - I sold in stages. I am currently down to less than a quarter position. Not sure I trust this ticker ... trying to decide on whether to buy back a quarter.
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT #yieldhogs There is so much uncertainty. What will it do when they announce a cut in the .60 dividend which is almost a sure thing? One might say that it's built in to the current price, but when reality hits, there may be more selling. Buying in now is a crap-shoot imho. Then, there is $WIN and what more will develop there that can affect $UNIT?
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT $WIN #yieldhogs - I suspect that some amount of a cut is already priced in. Still, how much? Too much? Not enough?
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT $WIN #yieldhogs Who knows which is what makes it a crap-shoot.
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT $WIN #yieldhogs - I just decided there are easier targets .... added to $LADR
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT $WIN $LADR #yieldhogs That's a better one. I reentered the other day after my fun effort at playing around the dividend ex-date.
- grcjr: $UNIT @jan2138 #yieldhogs - this piglet is up 4.25% today.
- 86944T: @grcjr $UNIT #yieldhogs Great. Took a risk with this one also after the big sell off.
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT #yieldhogs Of course since I sold it.
- grcjr: $UNIT - blah
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT blah is right.
- grcjr: @jan2138 $UNIT - sold about half of what I still had over the past week.
- jan2138: @grcjr $UNIT I am thinking about doing the same. This one hurts. It was a great situation, and I gambled that $WIN was going to win their case. If they didn't, I was sure that the lease payments would continue and UNIT would go merrily on its way. It still might happen that way but there are so many legal uncertainties that could affect the go-forward operations of UNIT, it has become a bigger crap-shoot.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT Cut to Underperform From Market Perform by Wells Fargo.
- issues: @jan2138 $UNIT keep those Confederate dollars! The South will rise again.
- jan2138: @issues $UNIT Not so sure about that.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT is postponing the release of its fourth quarter and year end 2018 financial results as it continues to assess the impact of the bankruptcy petition by Windstream Holdings, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries on Uniti's financial statements. Uniti's financial results were originally scheduled to be released after the close today. Uniti currently expects to release its fourth quarter and year end 2018 financial results, as well as provide a business update, no later than March 18, 2019.
- stairm01: @jan2138 $UNIT Thanks Dana, that takes some pressure off as to what to do with shares before the end of the day. We so do much appreciate your input in this forum.
- jan2138: @stairm01 $UNIT Thank you. I was looking forward to this report and what they were going to do with the dividend. It would be great if they feel they can continue to pay the .60. If they decide to cut it, it very well could be viewed as a positive causing the share price to rise.
- indigo1948: @jan2138 $UNIT I sold some of my position but will keep the balance as I believe there will be a rebound after results on the 18th. As always, thank you for your diligence.
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT; As you are aware, $WIN's loss in the legal battle has created angst for holders of $UNIT. Will they continue to receive lease payments in accordance with the lease agreement? What will happen to the dividend? Here is some positive n ...
- jan2138: @yieldhogs FYI $UNIT, $TCPC, $VGR , $MAIN, $GSBD report tomorrow.
- wijimmy: $CNSL .. This is NOT $CTL, $UNIT, $WIN and I think is down due to them....2/21/19 earnings met expectations, gudiance stood positive... The dividend is intact .. on 2/19/19 The board of directors of Consolidated Communications Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: CNSL) (the "Company") has declared its next quarterly dividend of $0.38738 per share on the Company's common stock. The dividend is payable on MAY 1, 2019 to stockholders of record on APRIL 15, 2019. This will represent the 55 consecutive quarterly dividend paid by the Company. Thats 13+ years...... check out @JAN2138 posts on $CNSL .... I'm in Full trading position at $9.86 average this morning. with a 2% stop.... yesterdays intra day low touched $9.79.. Should be a safe stress free ride back to $10.30 plus level.. for some quick pocket change..
- jan2138: @yieldhogs $UNIT: I don't like this. They are anticipating a dividend cut which they feel will take it down. I think the current price has taken that possibility in to account. "Uniti Group Price Target Cut to $7.00/Share From $16.00 by Morgan Stanley."
- mlgold99: @jan2138 $UNIT If I read a couple of stories correctly, $UNIT gets a bout 2/3rds of it revenue from $WIN which might be on its way to bankruptcy due to a lost legal battle where $WIN breached a covenant that restricted sale and leaseback transactions?
- jan2138: @mlgold99 $UNIT $WIN It's a complicated matter but essentially, you are right. WIN has declared bankruptcy which is viewed as a plus for UNIT because it protects the lease payments to UNIT. Service to WIN's customers is essential and without UNIT's towers and other assets, that service would not be available. The question is will UNIT cut the dividend or perhaps better said, how much will they cut their dividend because of what has developed in this matter. Of course, there is a difference of opinion about the court's ruling in the WIN-Aurelius case. But, the court has ruled and they will have to live by it for now.
- mradams0621: $UNIT paused due to volatility
- DrScience: $UNIT halted on $WIN bankruptcy headline. This is not good.
- DrScience: $UNIT restarted down 9% @ 8.50ish
- traderbren: $UNIT - nice run off the bottom...RHRN.
