Ship Finance International (SFL-N) is currently viewed as an investment with a strong dividend yield approaching 10%. While this yield presents an attractive avenue for income-focused investors, experts caution that such a high dividend may mask underlying challenges within the company's earnings potential. A consistent high dividend may indicate potential risks to the long-term health of the business, suggesting that investors should be wary of relying solely on dividend income. Overall, while the dividend may be appealing, it is essential to recognize that it is only one element of the stock’s total return, and investors should consider the company's earnings stability and operational challenges.

Strong dividend, but challenges on earnings. Recognize that dividend is only one part of overall return from a stock. A dividend that's too high for too long can be punitive to health of the business overall. Yield approaching 10%.

DON'T BUY
Owns, operates and charters out large crude carriers, oil tankers, product shipment and dry bulk. Freight rates are very low and a lot of companies are having difficulty generating cash flow. About 10.8% dividend. Has some pretty heavy debt maturities coming up in 2 years.
