That doesn't happen unless the market is getting killed and management doesn't set themselves up to go down with the ship so I am not fearful.
And I guess I do see some merit to holding a few too many now. At retirement time you need large positions to make real income and you have time to cull the list to the highest quality.
Yeah it's kind of like a "retirement preview". It will be very interesting to see which ones turn out to stay so great. I've been through both NLY and ORC reduced in price and lowering the dividend to match the new price.
Anyway, thanks to that part of my portfolio, my overall yield is hovering at around 2% in the taxable account, which is about where I want it.
