It’s a long-time holding in my Contrarian Income Report service’s portfolio.

These high-yielders have big and growing dividends, bargain valuations, and rising sales. They’re poised to hold their own in a meltdown, and when markets rise, their attractive payouts and cheap prices nicely set them up to outperform.

Plus, we can capture some additional upside too.

These stocks are perfectly positioned for whatever lies ahead: if the market tanks, they’ll likely trade flat, thanks to their cheap valuations (and sturdy dividends). And if it all turns out to be hype and the market keeps rolling higher? They’re poised to skyrocket while handing you a 7.1% average payout.

Savvy contrarian income seekers are familiar with these funds.
