Google's next big bet?
On Monday, June 30, Google announced a partnership that could change the world forever.
It just inked a massive contract with a tiny, private firm set to generate virtually LIMITLESS energy.
Its technology could trigger a energy market shock... supercharge the AI revolution... and save homeowners tens of thousands of dollars.
One former Google insider says this technology "could be even more important than the industrial revolution."
No wonder Google is investing in the company with the best chances of turning it into a reality.
Now – thanks to a little-known "backdoor" into this red-hot startup – it's your turn.

But hurry, this backdoor won't be open for much longer.

3 High-Yield Stocks Just Boosted Dividends Even More
Written by Leo Miller. Published 8/31/2025.
Several high-yield stocks have announced dividend increases, boosting income potential for investors. Each offers yields well above the broader market—an impressive floor of 3%. Below, we detail these recent hikes. Data as of the Aug. 29 market close unless noted.
MO's 6.3% Yield Ranks in the S&P 500 Top 10
Altria Group (NYSE: MO) recently declared a quarterly dividend of $1.06 per share, marking a 3.9% increase over the prior payout. This is the 60th raise in 56 years. Payable on Oct. 10 to shareholders of record as of Sept. 15, the hike pushes Altria's indicated yield to about 6.3%—far above the S&P 500's roughly 1.1% average and ranking it in the index's top 10 for dividend yield.
Despite nearly a 29% gain in 2025, Altria's shares continue to benefit from growth in smokeless tobacco pouches even as cigarette sales decline. In Q2, Altria's on! Nicotine pouches increased their share of the oral tobacco category by 70 basis points year over year to 8.7%, with shipments up 26%—accelerating from 18% growth in Q1. However, Philip Morris International (NYSE: PM)'s ZYN still leads the pouch category, and Altria's gains there have been gradual.
QFIN Boosts Dividend by 8.6%; Further Increases Likely
Washington Thinks They Own Your Bank Account (Ad)
What If Washington Declared That: YOUR Money ISN'T Actually Yours?
Sounds insane, but that's exactly what the Department of Justice just admitted in court—claiming cash isn't legally your property.
What does that mean? It means Washington thinks they can seize, freeze, or drain your accounts—whenever they want.
Key Points
- Dividend increases were just announced for three high-yield stocks.
- One of the world's top tobacco stocks is on the rise and has a yield well over 6%.
- A key name in the tax industry has a new dividend increase and a new leader on the way.
Qfin (NASDAQ: QFIN), a China-based fintech platform that uses AI to connect borrowers and lenders, saw its shares surge about 143% in 2024 before sliding roughly 24% in 2025.
On Aug. 14, QFIN declared a 76-cent per ADS dividend for H1 2025—an 8.6% increase over its previous payment. Payable around Sept. 30 to ADS holders of record as of Sept. 8, this biannual distribution yields about 5.2%. Given QFIN's recent pattern of raising dividends twice per fiscal year, its effective yield may exceed 5.2%.
HRB Lifts Dividend 12% Ahead of CEO Transition
H&R Block (NYSE: HRB) declared a quarterly dividend of $0.42 per share on Aug. 12, a 12% increase from its prior payout. Payable on Oct. 6 to shareholders of record as of Sept. 4, the raise boosts the stock's indicated yield to about 3.3%. Although HRB has delivered over a 300% total return in the last five years, its shares are down roughly 21% over the past 52 weeks.
The company is in transition after naming a new CEO who will assume leadership in early 2026. Analysts remain moderately bullish: the MarketBeat consensus price target is $55 (about 9% upside), while individual forecasts range from $62 at Barrington Research to $48 at Goldman Sachs.
Big-Time Dividends Just Got Even Bigger
These companies show a strong commitment to returning value to shareholders through dividend increases. Altria's exceptionally high yield and focus on smokeless tobacco could drive further gains if it captures more market share from Philip Morris. For income-focused investors, these hikes make already attractive yields even more compelling.
