High-yield/macroeconomics (fka YIELD)

[rfj1862]

There is not a tremendous advantage to holding high-yield stocks in a tax-deferred account as long as they are subject to the 15% rate.

So most high-yield stocks should be held in your regular account. REIT dividends are taxed as regular income, so I imagine there's an advantage to holding them in a tax-deferred account.

I'm a scientist (more or less), not an accountant, so perhaps 10nisman or another person more qualified than me can chip in with more information.

Now I'm going to go buy some more CNE.
