Today I added more tax free munis fund to my portfolio.
- NEA: 150 shares @ $13.19 --- Yield 6.22% (Tax exempt)
Total capital invested is 1985.90 and will add $123 to my yearly dividends.
High yielding stocks aren't the only thing under pressure recently, munis are experiencing some major pain as well. NEA reached a peak of about $15.25 a few months back and has fallen over 15% since bringings it's tax free yield up over 6%. For me that is the equivalent of a 9% REIT or a 7.5% qualified dividend stock. I'm in at this level and will gladly add more shares if it continues its decent.
There is certainly more than one way to skin a cat and munis are a great complement to my dividend and lending club portfolios.
PM, T, VZ, SO, CLX, CL, GILD and NKE are in my sights as well.

Forward dividends are around $4700.
DEFY MEDIOCRITY
Perfectly timed post. I'm looking to put $5k - $10k into MUNIs right now. NEA is on my list. Are you looking at any other funds? Why did you pick this one over others?
