Dogs of the Dow (again)

This popular strategy that picks the highest yielding Dow stocks worked well in 2006. I profited from two trades in GM, a 2006 "dog" and still on the list.

Some folks like to buy these high yielders at the start of the year. As always, if a person knows someone is going to buy soon, it is often good tactics to buy in ahead of them. With that in mind here is a link the current list of highest yielding Dow stocks (link). Of these, VZ Verizon, MRK Merck, and GM General Motors look the most interesting to me.

As always, my posts are not a recommendation to buy (or sell).
