 In this week’s cover story, Steven Frazer leads with an insight on ‘Dividend Dynamos’ highlighting amongst many other things how Investors tend to focus on small-cap stocks for capital appreciation but outlines they are perfectly capable of providing income, too. Fast-growing payouts can also drive share prices, and provide the perfect one-two punch.

 On another level, the mining supply chain still looks to be feeling the strain, Dan Coatsworth looks at whether the worst is over for the mining service and supply companies in the current climate.

 Simon Keane dedicates our eForum report to the Foreign Exchange arena highlighting how it is one of the most dynamic and liquid markets in the world and offers savvy traders around the clock profit opportunities, but to make the most of it, many skills need to be mastered.

 The life Insurance industry becomes the main focus of our Sector Report this week, highlighting how Insurers are fighting for their life right now, due in part, to current regulation and low returns on cash and bonds, which are both proving major challenges to this territory.
