  • It's time to be greedy... Buy these 5 shares today!
  • Volatility provides buying opportunities, as investors panic sell and then buy after the shares inch higher.

  • Dividends and discounts make this share a great buy
  • Following on the theme of buying shares at a discount, today's company is trading at a discount to its net asset value as well as paying over 6.5% in dividends. You will get paid to patiently wait for the company's share price to return to a premium to its net asset value (NAV). The biggest reason for the discount is that it failed to comply with credit regulations in the past. These issues... ››› more
