Thanks, rapid. That's exactly what I did. I would've been satisfied with JNJ at $92 but $85? Seemed like a gift. Since I don't keep much cash on-hand in our accounts, I can't do that very often compared to when I was repositioning the portfolio to dividend growth during the Great Recession. I'm surprised Downtown Josh Brown hasn't mentioned that before.
