We did some shifting around in her portfolio in the spring and momentum moved most of the new entries this time around.

I don't even want to update this thread right now. I think NilesMike will "get this". I started the year with a nice DGI top 10. Sold well over 300 puts and calls in 2019. The income was awesome but I got called out of some of my best stocks way before they topped. I could have done better if I'd known the S&P would run so hard. Many of my stocks made a 30-50% run and I never dreamed that would happen with recession fears supposedly looming. I'll get the DGI back to right as soon when the bull run takes a rest eventually. For now my top 10 is mostly utilities, pharma, AMZN, a few defense stocks and a ton of cash. I guess it could be worse. I lost my core positions for now... AAPL, HD,BMY,MO,CVS and a couple more. It might take all of 2020 to get it back to right but my gut says be patient after this run. I share my strategy's victories and feel like I should share the downside as well or I'm not being an asset to the forum.
So right now this is my top 10:
1. MMM (6.43%)
2. PM (5.92%)
3. ABBV (4.33%)
4. EMN (4.02%)
5. WBA (3.43%)
6. MO (3.11%)
7. TXN (3.08%)
8. SPG (2.27%)
9. VTR (2.08%)
10. ITW (1.99%)
Here it is from last year for reference:
1. PM
2. ITW
3. TXN
4. T
5. ABBV
6. PEP
7. WPC
8. BEN
9. VTR
10. EMN
