High Yield Share & Strategies - General

Last update 20th July 2020

The High Yield Share Strategies board is intended for wide-ranging discussions of ways to use the natural yield arising from higher-yielding equities to generate an income. Securities such as preference shares, PIBs, Investment Trusts, and ETFs etc can all be considered.

It is recognized that a higher yield can be a proxy for value characteristics, and that selecting higher-yielding equities on that basis can contribute to a total return strategy. It is emphasised that value strategies and total return strategies are NOT the remit of this board, which is intended for discussions of higher-yielding equities for the purposes of generating an income through such equities' natural yield.

While discussions of such securities in the context of specific high-yield strategies are appropriate here, posters are reminded that dedicated boards for Investment and Unit Trusts, REITs, and ETFs also exist, as does a board for Investment Strategies. Discussions of other strategies, discussions that are not related to income, or discussions of non-income-related equities, should be directed to those other boards.

For those who follow a more specific HYP approach, then there is a board dedicated to that called HYP Practical. Before posting on HYP Practical it is essential that you read the HYP Practical Group Guidelines here
