FYI: ( PFF is not a fresh idea for the Linkster, I bought it at $19.07 in 3/09.) Generating income is an ongoing challenge for investors everywhere, whether it’s someone nearing or at retirement, or someone simply looking to extract consistent income from their asset allocation.
ETF strategists and asset managers are faced with compressed bond yields—at 2.13%, 10-year Treasury yields are hovering near their lowest levels since mid-June. They know the challenge well, as they work with advisors and retail clients to meet income needs. Here, some of them offer their favorite income-generating ideas right now.
