You want yield that does more than tread water. Today's names pull cash from very different meters: electrons feeding the data center buildout, fees on every home that changes hands, and barrels coming out of the Permian. One of them just cut its payout by more than a third, and that decision tells you as much as the raises do.

For the first time ever, 25-year Buffett mentee Whitney Tilson is revealing the secretive project the Oracle of Omaha handed over to his successor at Berkshire Hathaway...

A niche "AI power" opportunity that Berkshire's new CEO is fully exploiting... and one Whitney believes could hand early investors a shot at America's next great energy fortune before a new power plant goes live this year.

The deadline to take advantage is approaching fast.

Shell plc (NYSE: SHEL) has completed its $16.5 billion acquisition of ARC Resources, immediately adding roughly 370,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day from Canada’s Montney basin. The deal also brings more than 1.5 million net acres and roughly 2 billion barrels of proved plus probable reserves.

The scale changes Shell’s production outlook. Management now expects its upstream and integrated gas production to grow around 4% annually through 2030, giving the company considerably more resources to develop without relying entirely on new discoveries.

Long-Life Resources Strengthen the Portfolio

Shell describes ARC’s assets as low-cost, long-duration resources capable of producing for decades. Around 40% of ARC’s production was liquids last year, generating roughly 70% of its revenue.

If your focus is where Shell’s future cash generation comes from, Canada now carries considerably more weight. Management expects the acquisition to deliver double-digit returns and increase free cash flow per share beginning in 2027.

The Deal Changes Shell’s Growth Profile

Shell expects to absorb ARC’s future development spending within its existing 2027 to 2028 capital expenditure range, rather than raising that budget to accommodate the acquisition.

That matters because you now have production growth, LNG optionality, and additional long-term reserves arriving without a corresponding expansion in Shell’s planned capital envelope. The real test will be converting that larger Canadian footprint into the cash flows management has promised.

SHEL currently trades at $93 and pays a dividend of $3.02 per share, a yield of 3.24%.

Haleon plc (NYSE: HLN) has secured stronger shelf positions for brands including Sensodyne and Centrum at Walmart and Target, using promotions, exclusive products, and commercial agreements to gain more visibility inside two of America’s biggest retailers.

The strategy is already producing results. Haleon’s share of the U.S. consumer-health market climbed from 11.4% in February to 12% in August, giving the company measurable progress in a market it has targeted for stronger growth.

Shelf Space Can Move Market 

Consumer-health products compete heavily on visibility because shoppers often make quick decisions inside the aisle. Better placement puts Haleon’s brands directly in front of customers before rivals get the same opportunity.

Walk through the strategy, and you can see why eye-level space matters. Haleon is using its scale with retailers to make established brands easier to find while creating better launch positions for new products.

Promotions Come With a Cost

More than 21% of Haleon’s second-quarter U.S. sales came through promotions, showing how aggressively the company is supporting demand as consumers become more price-conscious.

The products entering your shopping cart may look routine, but winning that purchase repeatedly is what builds market share. Haleon needs promotions to attract customers without training them to wait for discounts.

North America is already a major market for Haleon, and management entered 2026 expecting the region to return to growth. Its broader strategy also continues to invest behind brands while improving margins.

HLN currently trades at $9 and pays a dividend of $0.19 per share, a yield of 1.92%.

BHP Group Limited (NYSE: BHP) could bring China Baowu Steel Group directly into one of its major Australian iron ore operations, with the steelmaker considering a 15% to 25% stake in the Jimblebar mine. BHP currently owns 85% of the asset, although no final agreement has been reached.

Jimblebar produced about 62.5 million metric tons of iron ore in fiscal 2026, making any ownership change meaningful. The bigger story is what a strategic customer could add beyond the cash from selling part of the mine.

A Customer Could Become a Partner

Baowu is the world’s largest steelmaker, while China remains the dominant destination for Australian iron ore. Giving such a major buyer direct exposure to production could deepen a relationship that already matters enormously to BHP.

Once you connect the producer with one of its biggest end markets, the potential advantage becomes clearer. Shared ownership could encourage longer-term commercial alignment and strengthen BHP’s position with a critical Chinese customer.

Iron Ore Ties Could Get Stronger

BHP depends heavily on iron ore for earnings and cash generation, making durable demand relationships particularly valuable when commodity markets weaken.

If negotiations lead to a deal, you would have a deeper commercial connection between one of the world’s largest miners and its biggest steelmaking market. That strategic link may ultimately matter more than the immediate sale proceeds.

BHP currently trades at $90 and pays a dividend of $3.41 per share, a yield of 3.76%.
