If you're a regular reader of StreetAuthority, you know I love getting -- and reinvesting -- dividend paychecks. Simply put, my goal is to earn a paycheck every day of the month by owning a basket of solid income securities -- and then grow the size of those paychecks by harnessing the power of compounding through dividend reinvestment.
So far, the results have been very rewarding. From an initial $200,000 investment, I'm earning nearly $16,000 in dividends a year (or more than $1,300 a month) using this strategy. And that doesn't even include a penny from the healthy capital gains I've made from most of my holdings.
But as I said, you may have already heard this before. My goal today is to show you how to get the most out of your income investments using a simple yet effective three-part strategy.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Travis Hoium]
Noble isn't the only company betting big on new ultra-deepwater rigs for growth. Transocean (NYSE: RIG ) has seven rigs under construction, Ensco (NYSE: ESV ) has four, and SeaDrill (NYSE: SDRL ) has a whopping nine new ultra-deepwater rigs being built. If dayrates of $600,000 per day can be maintained despite the increased supply, these companies could see $219 million in additional revenue for each new rig.�

The most interesting news out of T stock recently is that it�� slashing prices — again — as its price war with T-Mobile U.S. (TMUS) heats up. AT&T customers can sign up for a 2-gigabyte data plan for $65 per month, down from $80. And adding a second phone lifts the total to $90, down from $105. As much as the price war might help T’s market share, it doesn’t help the share price. T stock is down 8% so far this year.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Smith On Stocks]
Using my assumptions, the common of Agenus might be worth about $7.00 per share in early 2014 based on the royalties from the Glaxo vaccines and the net operating loss carry forward even if every other asset in the company were valued at zero. However, there may be substantial value in Agenus' internal vaccine programs in recurrent and newly diagnosed glioblastoma and the genital herpes vaccine. Based on a comparison to peer companies like Northwest Biotherapeutics (NWBO) and ImmunoCellular Therapeutics (IMUC), I believe that the internal programs at Agenus currently may be worth $150 million or $4.45 per share. Adding this to the value of the MAGE A-3 vaccine could produce a stock price of $11.00 in early 2014.
