The composite rate for Series I Treasury Bonds for the first six months after May 1, 2024 is 4.28%. This rate is made up of a 1.30% fixed rate and a 1.48% inflation rate. But for income-oriented investors who can afford to stay in the market for at least a few years, I think stocks with growing dividends still make the most sense, counsels Scott Chan, editor of The Complete Investor.

Options offer leverage, allowing traders to pay a relatively modest premium to get exposure to 100 shares of the underlying stock per option contract. But as with stocks, just as you can buy options, you can also short them, also known as writing an option, counsels Scott Chan, editor of The Complete Investor.

One example is the Recon Capital Nasdaq-100 Covered Call ETF (QYLD). The extra return is nice, of course, but there are also potential downside risks, notes Scott Chan, editor of The Complete Investor.
