Thank you for sharing all that information on your portfolio stocks..

My brother who is very conservative has always maintained a steady portfolio and all in dividend plays. He has VZ which is why I mentioned it to Paul... He does not care what the market does as long as he gets his dividends which are all good yields.. AND then he has the advantage of having the stock appreciate.

You mention 15% Federal Tax on dividends.. I didn't know this.

I have BAC which I am holding for the reasons you cited you hold your energy stocks. However, I think you rationale better as the banks do fluctuate with the interest rates and they are so uncertain right now. I think there will always be energy depletions that will keep the prices high. I don't know about gold although I have AUUK. I also have ALY.. which has not done that well.
