Steven Bavaria on how the ’Income Factory strategy’ copes with current conditions

Steven Bavaria, author of "Inside the Income Factory" on SeekingAlpha.com, says that current market conditions have shown the value of focusing on income streams rather than the value of the underlying securities, allowing investors the peace of mind that comes from generating cash-flow and putting that money back to work buying at a discount. Bavaria noted that when a manufacturing company builds a production plant, they don't worry about the resale value of the factory but instead focus on its output; he says investors should act the same way, focusing less on the fluctuations in value of their investments and more on getting consistent, above-average yields, which provide a comforting cash stream that makes tough times -- like the first quarter of this year -- much easier to stomach.
