Two Alternatives For A Potential $5000 Monthly Income Traditionally, a large portion of equity returns has come from two factors - reinvested dividends and compounding. We present two income-focused approaches: a fund-based portfolio for hands-off investors and a stock-plus-ETF portfolio for active investors.

AES Corp: One Of The Best Times To Buy AES offers a compelling value opportunity with a nearly 7% dividend yield that's well-covered by long-term contracted cash flows and a strong growth backlog. The company's fundamentals are robust, featuring steady renewable project progress, new PPAs with major tech firms, and cost-saving initiatives. AES trades at a deeply discounted forward PE of 4.7, far below its historical average, suggesting significant upside potential if valuation normalizes. seekingalpha.com - 2 weeks ago
The AES Corporation Remains Unscathed By Tariffs And Economic Downturns AES remains a strong buy despite recent underperformance, with a robust 11.7 GW project pipeline and long-term contracted revenues ensuring growth through 2027. The company's debt appears high, but 20% is tied to projects under construction; most debt is non-recourse, limiting risk, and management has refinanced 2025 maturities. Shares trade at a deep discount, with 2025 P/E below 5 and potential for the stock to double to $24 by 2027 as EBITDA rises and debt falls. seekingalpha.com - 2 weeks ago
