Welcome to Safe Dividend Investing's Podcast 242- (4 October 2025)

 Ian Duncan MacDonald has started to write another investment book on stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ. Both his books and his podcasts are  written for those who fear investing in the stock market  because they are convinced  they will lose their life savings.  Often they keep their savings in bank savings accounts or bonds that fail to even match the average annual inflation rate of 3.5%.  Each year their savings are able to purchase less-and-less.

 There is a better, safe way to grow your life savings. Carefully chosen financially strong stocks paying high dividends can provide a generous, reliable, growing income. Doubling the value of your portfolio within 5 years is possible due to these stocks normal capital gains and the compounding impact of investing your dividend income back into the stocks in your portfolio. Upon retiring you can live off your dividends without having to liquidate your portfolio.

Investors in mutual funds and other investment vehicles may only have a vague idea of what they are invested in and have zero control over such "managed" investments. Each year they pay fees which are drain on their savings.  Self-directed investors know exactly what is in their carefully chosen,  safe portfolio of 20 diversified stocks that they have  analyzed and scored. Once that  portfolio is established they may go for years without a need to make changes to it.

 Ian invites those seeking to gain self-confidence in self-directed investing to listen to his podcasts. The first 160 answer many questions from new investors. The more recent podcasts each week analyze and score 3 financially strong, high dividend stocks. Follow along with Ian until you feel comfortable enough to start building your own portfolio.  A written transcript  accompanies each podcast for quick reference and review.

In today's  podcast #242 he is scoring and analyzing the following 3 stocks that are traded on the New York Stock Exchange:

 (1) MACH National Reources LP (stock symbol MNR) 

(2) Macy's Inc (stock symbol M  )
