Every income investor faces the same challenge: the tension between high current yield and long-term dividend growth. Chasing yield risks capital erosion and instability, while focusing solely on growth can delay cash flow for years. The real question is how to quantify and balance these trade-offs in a way that ensures both income reliability and portfolio resilience.
This book delivers a research-driven framework for financial professionals, analysts, and sophisticated investors who want to move beyond rules of thumb. Inside, you’ll learn:
The mathematical impact of drawdowns on income portfolios.
How high-yield and growth strategies behave under different market regimes.
Techniques for stress-testing dividend portfolios using sequence-of-returns analysis.
A practical blended framework for achieving both stability and sustainable cash flow.
The Income Balance Equation is not about hype or opinion—it is a rigorous exploration of risk, trade-offs, and long-term compounding designed for professionals who require clarity in decision-making.
