Best Net Payout Yield Stocks To Invest In 2014

First, there was Google's (NASDAQ: GOOG  ) Android. Can Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL  ) iOS and Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT  ) Windows Phone be next in line for�Facebook (NASDAQ: FB  ) �Home?

According to Bloomberg, that's exactly what may happen. The social network is in talks with both Cupertino and Redmond to add support for its new Home software suite of apps and services. Facebook product exec Adam Mosseri said in an interview that negotiations are under way, but nothing's set in stone at this point.

Since Apple is such a control freak, though, it seems rather unlikely that Home will ever come to the iPhone in its current form. Home hijacks the home screen and lock screen, as well as numerous key services, and Apple already integrates Facebook directly into iOS, so it may not have much incentive to give up even more control to the social networking giant.

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Robert Holmes]

     Analyst Penelope Butcher calls Ryanair "the best placed airline in our coverage universe," which she pins on the company's pricing power, competitor capacity withdrawals, and bargaining power with manufacturers and airports.

    "On our forecasts, the company will still be in a position to match its record 2007 net income result for FY12, and continue to expand toward doubling this result by 2015, owing to modest capacity growth and stability/potential relief in its fuel cost base from calendar 2012 onward," Butcher writes.

    While Butcher's base case calls for a 17% climb in share price next year, her most bullish view would have shares up 61% next year. On the downside, her most bearish outlook calls for shares of Ryanair falling 27% in 2012.
