How to Triple Your Investments Practically Overnight With the Best Penny Stock Picker Needless to say our varied topics of discussion quickly rose above the average bar chatter (at least on a Tuesday night). We discussed and argued about jobs, religion, women, politics, and of course the markets. It's strange but somehow every conversation I have eventually moves into a discussion on the stock market. I guess it's my favorite subject. Given the market gyrations over the last few weeks nobody was willing to go out on a limb and call this week the market bottom. Despite the recent Fed action, the collapse of a major Wall Street institution (Bear Stearns), and the amazing 400 point rally - everyone hedged. "Maybe we'll know more in a few days". "Let's see how the dollar reacts." "Maybe when we break the resistance of the downtrend channel." Huh? Well . . . not quite. I started thinking through all of the different types of investments out there. Common stock, Muni Bonds, Preferred Stock, Corporate Bonds, TIPS, Government Bonds, Options, Warrants, Convertible Securities, Derivatives. In my 10 years as an Investment Banker I had created many of these securities . . . then it hit me. REITs. For those of you who don't know, REIT stands for Real Estate Investment Trust. It's a special type of designation given by the IRS. It allows for a company to distribute earnings pre-tax to its shareholders. The REIT designation eliminates the double taxation normally associated with corporate dividend payments. The REITs traditionally invest in real estate which throws off steady payments to the company. There are many different types of REITs - some are better than others.
