Image source: Getty Images The UK market is packed with high-yield dividend shares that make great options for passive income. Many pay above the 3.5% average yield. But growth is also important when considering shares for an income portfolio. One of my favourite FTSE 250 stocks is Greggs (LSE: GRG). The popular high-street bakery chain has delivered impressive performance since 2014. Up 434% in the past 10 years, it’s beaten the wider UK market. But past performance isn’t indicative of future results. So how much would a £10k investment today net me in the future? Let’s have a look. A…

Hezbollah said overnight that the dead included 16 of its members, including senior leader Ibrahim Aqil and another top commander, Ahmed Wahbi. The strike sharply escalated the conflict between Israel and the Iran-backed group and inflicted another blow on Hezbollah after two days of attacks this week in which pagers and walkie-talkies used by its members…
Image source: Getty Images We’re approaching the halfway point for the tax year and that had me thinking about how I could make the most of my Stocks and Shares ISA in the second half. I’ve made a lot better use of my ISA this year than I did last year. After all, with the tax-free returns on offer, why not? I want to try and get as close to maxing out my £20,000 limit this year as possible. Please note that tax treatment depends on the individual circumstances of each client and may be subject to change in future.…

It’s been a terrific investment over the past decade, and its strong growth drivers help it sustain momentum. Microsoft (MSFT -0.78%) has been one of the top stocks on the market in the past decade. Buying and holding shares of this technology giant over this period has helped investors enjoy market-beating returns. More specifically, Microsoft stock has delivered an annual return of almost 27% in the past 10 years, assuming the dividends paid out by the company were reinvested. For comparison, the S&P 500 index’s annual returns over the past decade stand at 13% (assuming the dividends were reinvested). So,…
Wall Street has fallen in love with the artificial intelligence (AI) trend. This is not surprising, considering that PwC analysts expect AI to add nearly $15.7 trillion to the global economy annually by the end of 2030.Semiconductor giant Nvidia’s (NASDAQ: NVDA) shares have gained nearly 430% in the past three years. While the AI trend is still going strong, many analysts now view Nvidia’s shares as being priced for perfection. Challenges such as increasing competition, reduced pricing power, geopolitical and regulatory risks, and over-reliance on a few customers may negatively impact the company’s share price in the coming months.Billionaire investors…
By Jonathan Landay, Phil Stewart and Anthony Deutsch WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Iran did not include mobile launchers with the close-range ballistic missiles that Washington last week accused Tehran of delivering to Russia for use against Ukraine, according to three sources with knowledge of the matter. The sources – a European diplomat, a European intelligence official and a U.S. official – said it was not clear why Iran did not supply launchers with the Fath-360 missiles, raising questions about when and if the weapons will be operational. The U.S. official, who like the other sources spoke on condition of anonymity, said…
Image source: Getty Images The idea of generating a yield of 15% in a Stocks and Shares ISA is undoubtedly appealing. After all, that’s nearly double what the FTSE 100 typically generates after capital gains. And in terms of passive income, it translates to earning £3,000 a year for every £20,000. That means if an investor were to max out their annual ISA limit for 10 years, they’d be earning close to £30,000 a year without doing any work. So how can investors try to turn this fantasy into a reality? Earning a 15% yield First things first, earning double-digit…
