Aggressive Investing
Aggressive investing stock picks can give you bigger gains than conservative selections. But they can also give you bigger losses. Aggressive stocks tend to be more highly leveraged and more volatile than conservative stocks. This can be caused by many factors, including a higher level of the risk in their industry or particular situation. Pat McKeough looks for aggressive stocks that have hidden value, or value that attracts less investor attention than it deserves. This gives buyers a bargain, and may also attract takeover bids. view post archive »
Bargain Stocks
One of the sweetest and most profitable pleasures of successful investing is to buy a high-quality “bargain stock” (or a stock that is reasonably priced, if not cheap, in relation to its sales, earnings or assets), then hold on to it as mainstream investors recognize its value and push up its share price. Pat McKeough is an expert at delving into a company’s financial statements and identifying undervalued securities and bargain stocks. view post archive »
Blue Chip Stocks
Pat McKeough believes investors will profit most, and with the least risk, by buying shares of blue chip companies — those that are well-established, with strong balance sheets and steady cash flows. These are companies that have bright prospects in healthy industries. They also have strong management that is capable of remaining competitive in a changing marketplace. The best blue chips offer both capital gains growth potential and regular dividend income. view post archive »
Capital Gains Tax
Capital gains tax is the tax that must be paid on the profit that comes from the sale of an asset. An asset can be a security or a fixed asset, like land or a building. Of most concern to investors are the taxes on capital gains generated by stocks, bonds and other securities. Pat McKeough can help you build a properly structured investment portfolio that will let you minimize the tax on your capital gains and take advantage of the lower tax rates you’ll pay on capital gains compared to interest.

Commodity Investments
Commodities include raw materials, like oil, copper, tin and aluminum, as well as agricultural products, such as cocoa, coffee and sugar. Most, if not all, non-professionals who get directly involved in trading commodity investments wind up losing money. That’s why Pat McKeough believes the best way to invest in, and profit from, commodities is by purchasing commodity stocks. Commodity stocks are shares of well-established companies that will benefit from a rise in commodity prices.

Conservative Investing
Conservative investing aims at capital gains with prudent risk. Conservative investors seek to preserve their investment portfolio’s value with lower-risk securities, and often blue chip or large cap equities. For individuals with limited resources, and those approaching retirement age who must be cautious with their nest eggs, Pat McKeough offers well reasoned advice on conservative investing. view post archive »
Gold Stocks
Gold stocks are investments in companies that mine or explore for gold. Gold is often viewed as a safe investment, so prices of these stocks will often increase in response to political or economic worries, which raise the price of gold. Instead of buying gold directly, Pat McKeough feels the best way to invest in gold is to buy the stocks of high-quality gold-mining companies. Our free report reveals how you can increase your profits — and cut your risk — in gold investing: Gold Investing: 7 Profitable Strategies for Investing in Canadian Gold Stocks view post archive »
Green Stocks
Green stocks are shares of companies that promote and/or profit from actions that are good for the environment. Although many have a lot of conceptual and emotional appeal, they may offer limited returns to investors. These companies often need a long time to develop in light of high start-up costs and uncertain government subsidies. Pat McKeough believes investors should use care when investing in these companies, and focus on those that have strong business models and long-term growth prospects. view post archive »
Growth Stocks
Growth stocks are companies that are likely to have earnings growth above the market average. Frequently they pay few, if any, dividends. Instead they typically reinvest any extra cash flow to promote further growth. Chosen wisely, according to Pat McKeough’s advice, a selection of high-quality growth-oriented stocks should be part of a well-diversified portfolio. view post archive »
Income Investing
Income investing is an investment strategy that works to increase the amount of steady income an investor makes from their portfolio. This investment strategy is often chosen by investors who are at or near retirement and need their portfolios to supplement other forms of income, like pensions. Our free report reveals how you can use a simple strategy to find the very best high dividend stocks: Dividend Paying Stocks: How High Dividend Stocks Can Supercharge Your Income Investing view post archive »
Income Trusts
Income trusts are investments that hold income-producing assets. Their units trade on stock exchanges, but they flow much of their income through to unitholders as “distributions.” This means many trusts pay little or no tax, though the Canadian government plans to begin taxing trust distributions in 2011. Investing in trusts can be risky, as the businesses that underpin them may have steady cash flow, but could stagnate as the economy changes. Pat McKeough believes investors should look for trusts with low capital expenditures and mature businesses. view post archive »
Investing for Beginners
Pat McKeough has been helping investors make profits for more than 25 years. His advice to beginning investors is the same as it is for all investors: buy mostly high-quality, dividend paying stocks (or mutual funds that hold these stocks) and evenly spread your investments over the five main economic sectors (Resources, Manufacturing, Finance, Utilities and Consumer). Pat also believes investors should avoid stocks in the consumer/broker limelight and focus on those with hidden or little-noticed assets.

Investment Counsellor

Market Analysis
Market analysis is essentially research into price movements and other technical data that is used to predict the direction of the markets. Experienced investors know Pat McKeough for his insightful market analysis and his candid, unpretentious style. view post archive »
Mining Stocks
Mining stocks are investments in companies that produce or explore for minerals. They are affected by commodity prices in addition to their own business risks. While sometimes risky, they can also be strong performers when commodity prices are up. However, due to the volatility of these stocks, Pat McKeough recommends that they only form a modest part of a balanced portfolio. Our free report helps you zero in on the mining stocks (including uranium stocks, metal stocks and junior mines) that are in the best position to take advantage of rising resource demand.

Mutual Funds
Mutual funds are investment products that are comprised of a pool of money collected from many investors for investing in a diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, money-market instruments and similar assets. Mutual funds let small investors access professionally managed, diversified portfolios that would be difficult for them to create on their own. view post archive »
Penny Stocks
It may seem contradictory to use the terms “investment quality” and “penny stock” in the same sentence. However, there are even wider disparities in the investment quality of these stocks than in better-established companies. Most penny stocks involve a lot of risk. They can pay off extremely well when they succeed, but it’s much easier to launch and promote one of these stocks than it is to build a profitable business. That’s why penny mining stocks are so common, even though profit-making mines are rare. Pat McKeough has a long track record of finding the “gems” among the rocks when it comes to these types of stocks. view post archive »
Portfolio Management
Portfolio managers choose from a range of investments, including stocks and bonds, to maximize returns for their clients. Portfolio management is one of Pat McKeough’s specialties. Pat provides these services through Successful Investor Wealth Management Inc. To learn more about this service, click here. view post archive »
Real Estate Investing
Real estate investing is the purchase of real estate for profit. You can do this directly or cut risk by investing in real estate investment trusts, or REITs. These trusts pool large sums and invest in income-producing real estate, such as office buildings and hotels. Pat McKeough recommends a number of high-quality REITs in his financial advisories. Click here to learn more. view post archive »
Retirement Planning
Retirement planning is the process of setting retirement goals, estimating the income needed to meet those goals and anticipating your potential sources of retirement income. Pat McKeough keeps his clients’ retirement plans in mind when he gives them portfolio advice. view post archive »
Royalty Trusts
Royalty trusts derive income from royalties associated with the sale of oil, natural gas or minerals. These trusts often promise high yields compared to stocks and bonds, and involve far more risk than most investors realize. This is why Pat McKeough recommends so few of them (but he has managed to find some real gems among the ones he has recommended). view post archive »
Stock Investing
Stock investing remains a great way to build wealth over time. Pat McKeough recommends you follow his three-part advice when investing in stocks: buy mostly high-quality, dividend-paying stocks; evenly spread your portfolio over the five main economic sectors (Resources, Manufacturing, Finance, Utilities and Consumer); and avoid stocks in the consumer/broker limelight. Our free report reveals: 9 keys to spotting stocks that are about to soar, 3 subtle risk factors that can tell you if a stock is headed for disaster — and much, much more Stock Market Investing Strategy: Pat McKeough’s Conservative Investing Guide for Making Money & Cutting Risk. view post archive »
Stock Market

Tax Shelters
Tax shelters are legal investment vehicles that let investors pay less tax. Some are very risky and should be avoided, but others, like RRSPs and TFSAs, are great ways for Canadian investors to cut their tax bills. view post archive »
Tech Stocks
Tech stocks are a category of companies that are involved in the development and production of technology, such as electronics or software. With high research and development budgets, these stocks rarely pay dividends and are often classified as growth stocks. The best of these companies use their high research and development spending to make products that will give them an advantage in a competitive industry. view post archive »
Trading Stocks Online
Trading stocks online is easier than ever thanks to discount stock trading and the development of the Internet. Investors can now trade with ease from their home or office computers. view post archive »
World Stock Market
There is no world stock market, but rather a great many stock exchanges in the world. However, investing in international markets can be complicated and risky. A simpler strategy is to invest the bulk of your portfolio in U.S. and Canadian companies that have operations in many countries. This allows them to benefit from positive changes in the global, not just the local, economy. As well, U.S. stock markets are the closest thing to an international stock market, as many foreign companies list on them using American depositary receipts (ADRs). view post archive »
