Here’s the Time-Tested Way to Make

15% Per Year From Stocks

There’s an untapped portion of the market few people know about …

It’s filled with stocks that seem “boring” to the uninformed investor…

Companies that rarely get coverage from the mainstream media …

Contrarian investments that are hiding their true potential …

However, if you look below the surface and read between the lines, these “Hidden Yield Stocks” offer intelligent investors the opportunity to deliver 15% total returns per year—no matter what the wider market does.

How?

Well, the answer lies in what I call “The Three Pillars.”

Pillar #1 – Consistent Dividend Hikes

Pillar #2 – Lagging Stock Price

Pillar #3 – Stock Buybacks

Together, these three pillars allow us to identify the stocks that are undervalued … overlooked … recession-resistant … and primed for major growth.

And by investing exclusively in these “Hidden Yield Stocks,” we can enjoy massive upside with very little downside … plus collect regular, reliable income through healthy dividend payouts!

The current yield of NESF, is 14%. Is Mr Market flashing a warning sign, is Mr Market right ?

Sure, chasing high current yields will provide you with instant gratification, but it won’t give you the recession-resistant income … or the 15% year on year returns we want.

Instead, you need to focus on consistent dividend hikes.

In my opinion, selecting companies with a proven track of increasing their dividend payments is one of the safest, most reliable ways to get rich in the stock market. You see, every time a company raises its dividend, you start earning more from your original investment.

For example:

On a $1,000 initial investment, $30 in dividends equals a 3% return. Later, if the dividends go up to $40 a year, you are effectively earning 4% on your initial $1,000 investment.

As this trend continues, you could easily be earning 10%, 15%, even 20% per year just from rising dividends, as your initial investment never changes.

📈 Current Price & Movement

  • Price: 60.0 GBp
  • Change: +0.4 GBp (+0.67%)
    This modest uptick suggests some short-term stability, but it’s not a strong momentum signal on its own.
    ☀️ Fund Focus
  • NESF invests in solar photovoltaic assets, primarily in the UK, with some international exposure.
  • It targets long-term income generation through government-backed subsidies and power purchase agreements.
    💰 Income Potential
  • NESF is known for high dividend yields, often exceeding 6–7%, making it attractive for income-focused investors.
  • Dividends are typically paid quarterly, and the fund aims to maintain or grow payouts over time.
    🧱 Risk Profile
  • Interest rate sensitivity: As a yield-focused fund, NESF may face pressure if UK interest rates rise further.
  • Inflation-linked revenues: Many of its contracts are inflation-linked, offering some protection.
  • NAV discount: Like many listed infrastructure funds, NESF may trade at a discount to NAV, which can be an opportunity or a red flag depending on market sentiment.
    🔍 Considerations Before Buying
  • Peer comparison: How does NESF stack up against other renewable infrastructure funds like Bluefield Solar (BSIF) or Foresight Solar (FSFL)?
  • NAV trends and dividend cover: Check recent reports to assess sustainability of payouts.
  • Market outlook: If you believe in the long-term resilience of UK solar and infrastructure income, NESF could be a compelling hold.
