Tuesday, June 17th, 2025 | 1 PM EST | Live Training with David Trainer

June marks the midpoint of the year.

It's a natural time for you to assess your performance and consider how to best position portfolios for reliable income and growth in the second half and beyond.

But the market is facing a tug of war.

Retail investors are screaming "buy the dip!"

While institutional investors are moving out of U.S. stocks and shorting the markets.

So how do you find safety in such a volatile environment?

High-quality dividend stocks.

After years of digging into Wall Street’s accounting tricks, I can tell you firsthand that many so-called “dividend plays” are traps for Main Street investors.

Join me for a live session where we'll pinpoint what I believe truly underpins sustainable dividends and stock value: verifiable cash flows and deep fundamental strength. This is for investors who want steady gains built on solid ground, not fleeting hype.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

    • The top three mistakes investors make with dividend stocks.
    • Practical steps for doing real due diligence to find quality dividend stocks.
    • How you can access the best-of-the-best dividend stocks.
    • Live Bonus: Bring your tickers! I’ll analyze three stocks based on what you send in the chat.

Many investors aim for strong dividend income, but certain approaches can lead to bad outcomes.

This training will equip you with the tools to build a portfolio that could offer both reliable income and the potential for asset growth...
