The first quarter was tough to swallow for many investors, as the general market sold off heavily twice—once in late January and once in late March. And the addition of higher volatility, both during the downturns and the bounces, only added to the indigestion for many looking at their portfolios.

This month, after 28 wonderful years at the helm of Profitable Investing, I am announcing my retirement from the newsletter business and passing the baton to well-respected veteran financial analyst and my good friend, Neil George, who will be taking over as editor April 1. You'll want to take a look at the letter we've prepared that shares further details, available on the website and enclosed in your mailed issue.
In this month's visit, I'll show you why you don't have to fear an imminent market collapse. A new force has come into play that will likely keep stocks rising at least another quarter or two—maybe all the way to the end of 2018. There's money to be made; let's make some, starting with three blue chip companies priced to deliver as much as 20% in the coming year (plus market-beating returns over the next three to five years). Later, Neil will walk you through six well-positioned real estate trusts. Each will provide you with not only rich current income (cash yields up to 6.5%) but also generous appreciation potential once the crowd's overwrought interest-rate fears subside. For many months now, I have written about the great upside potential in several REITs, whose attractiveness prevails despite investors' inflationary fears.
I am trying to buy or research a stock you discussed, but the ticker symbol you mentioned in Profitable Investing doesn't work. How can I find the right ticker symbol?
Unlike the common stocks and mutual funds most investors are used to, certain investments, including preferred stocks and international stocks, may have a welter of different ticker symbols depending on what quote lookup or brokerage service you look for them on. More
