Also trimmed some long term gains on VT to buy the ZM dip which seems unwarranted.
Yeah, after I sold off MO and NLY, I found that my 1/4/7/10 months were low, though I've since found alternatives. At some point next year when I've trimmed the high yielders in favor of more solid DGI stocks, I'll publish my dividend calendar.

I probably won't be around much this month. No moves to make, my watch list is already full of names, and my other hobbies need attention. And the Red Sox ... let's not go there.
You should have held on to MO. Its been up $2 since you sold it and is now over $50
Not to mention they just raised the dividend . And you mention solid DGI Stocks. It doesn't get more solid then MO
I sold both MO and BTI because of the products they make, not because they aren't great stocks to own. Blame my girlfriend. I was talking to her about my portfolio, and she went, "Why do you own that ???". Then I realized I don't want to read an article about people smoking more, and be happy because it means profits are up for my stocks.
Money is money. I never smoked a day in my life and yet I own the name. And smoke isn't the only thing that kills you. Lots of things can kill you like food, drugs. cars, ect. JNJ kills people too and I bet you own that one lol
