Don't base it off the top 5 holdings because it holds funds and ETFS. Within their top 10 you have ACN, COST, INTU, ABBV, MSFT, LLY, PEP, TGT, UPS and PPG


But look at all their holdings and you will get a good idea of all the great companies this ETF holds. 

They also hold NEE, MA, DE, JNJ, BMY, HON, KMB, LOW in top 25. I think it's about 95 holdings in all. 

UNH, HSY, V, PG, MDLZ and XEL as well just to name a few

"The JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPI) is an actively managed fund that generates income by selling options on U.S. large cap stocks. The fund invests in S&P 500 stocks that exhibit low-volatility and value characteristics, and sells options on those stocks to generate additional income."

So this is basically a play on the fund manager being able to predict the market movements and options are heavily used to enhance the yield. Which explains the high yield and the severely fluctuating dividend. Basically the dividend is almost fully dependent on the fund manager timing his options right.

I also took a new position in PXD thanks to the secondary at $153

I needed to add another name in the sector to go along with CVX and EOG

now the only other sector I'm underweight in is leisure 

Dude I am a charter member of ENPH.  I made a few hundred a month the past year selling short puts while it ran.  I have a few short puts that are WAY in the money after this bloodbath.  I can only roll forward so much before I own $140 shares.     I said here many times I was good with adding a real position starting at $125.  If I am honest I need ENPH to head back to $120ish to be back to even.  I wasn;t aggressive enough when it was truly cheap.  I'll add shares to my growthy port in the meantime.

Yeah yeah. What ever floats your boat   lol

I am very good with owning ENPH long-term.  How happy I am in the end very much depends on the entry.  We'll see where the bottom is soon enough.

Well me too. Got in at $108.90 

This will be a big winner for years to come.  You have to add at some point, so why not today. I don't worry about making a few $ here and there  . I'm in to win it lol 

Are we having fun today

I did the same. Yield is only 2% and that's not good enough for me. I understood it was because of the split, but the stock is expensive regardless.

I also sold my MO stake and put it into OKE.
