I sold some ETFS, high flyers  and trimmed a few other non dividend holdings. My goal is to get to 20k-25k a year in dividend stocks.

I have about 8 years or so before retirement so want that extra income going forward. I learned don’t get greedy and think things will just keep going up. I’m fine with holding mostly low beta stocks for now and the future unless tech gets creamed again lol

My top 10 now are ABBV, LMT, DUK, MSFT, NSC, MO, PEP, CMI, APD and AVGO

MA and ITW just outside the top 10

No bad dividend stocks right there.

You might want to take a look at CVS to add into that list. Still undervalued by 50%. Also UNM, MRK, BMY

What a great list of top 10 (12) you have! Except for NSC & CMI I own the rest of them. 

I added a little ABBV and I think I have over 300 shares now. Still way much smaller than yours.

I sold out WKHS after the surge today at a small loss. I plan to exit most of my speculative stocks when the time is right.

We will see where it goes. For $125 I figured it was worth the gamble. Maybe Reedit will jack it up to $60 like AMC LOL

OK guessing game time!

My guess is  Wednesday 9th of June.

I haven't researched it.  Hadn't heard of it until you and Otter were discussing it last week.  I am trying to not add too many more new names.  We'll see how long that lasts. 

What I need is for tech to get hammered for real again, but this market is resilient.

Very small trades this morning.  Added a few shares to DG-ARKF  Sold a few SLV puts.
