In the space of high dividend yield stocks, Prospect Capital Corporation (NASDAQ:PSEC) and ARMOUR Residential REIT, Inc.(NYSE:ARR) are prominent players, but is it only the highest number that gets to settle this battle? Fox Business‘ Charles Payne handed the trophy to an unlikely winner in this race.
“[…] ARR [ARMOUR Residential REIT, Inc.(NYSE:ARR)] has a sweet yield 14.4. Prospect Capital’s yield, by the way trades under the symbol PSEC, is almost 13%. It’s the stock that I would go with. I feel it’s kind of safer, I think there is more potential for the upside for the actual stock […],” said Payne.

Payne raised an interesting point that the number attached with the dividend yield does not necessarily mean a better investment. There are two other important cosiderations to take into account while investing for a regular stream of monthly income through dividends. Prospect Capital Corporation (NASDAQ:PSEC), in his opinion, performed better than ARMOUR Residential REIT, Inc.(NYSE:ARR) on both counts.
Firstly, it is the upside potential for the stock price. Payne saw Prospect Capital Corporation (NASDAQ:PSEC)’s stock appreciating much more than ARMOUR Residential REIT, Inc.(NYSE:ARR). In case of growth in stock price, merely selling the stock could become a significant source of revenue itself.
More importantly, it’s the risk factor associated with these high dividend yield stocks. Prospect Capital Corporation (NASDAQ:PSEC)’s 13% yield is fairly high as it is, but ARMOUR Residential REIT, Inc.(NYSE:ARR) manages to come over the top and offers 14.4% yield to its investors which sounds borderline ridiculous, or in financial terms, risky as hell.
It is a tricky issue to decide where to draw the line and how to balance risk and return, but investors should keep in mind the most important rule in finance, higher return comes at the price of taking additional risk.
NewOak Capital’s President, James Frischling who was also present during this discussion had similar insights to share.
“[…] The two stocks that got mentioned, huge dividend payers but almost to the point of, I would say that is a level of risk that’s where you are getting those 15 plus dividends,” said Frischling.

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.
Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.
At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.
Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.
Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:
175 Teslas
107 Amazons
140 Metas
84 Googles
65 Microsofts
And 55 Nvidias
And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.
It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.
Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.
How could anything be worth that much?
The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.
And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.
What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.
In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.
Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.
Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.
When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.
Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…
But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.
And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…
