interesting evaluation method. I think it is good to do it yourself, which forces each individual to examine each holding for the performance they desire.

Just as one example, I bought SGU just over a year ago, and my YOC is now 7.15% vs market yield of 5.60%. Interesting how these numbers can move, even in a short period of time.

TPZ, which was nothing initially but a parking spot, now has a YOC of 7.89% vs. market yield of 6%.

Obviously if you have been selling calls, that will increase your yield, but I just consider that additional IRA contributions, and don't count them in as yield. As they accumulate, I can purchase additional stock in my IRA that I otherwise couldn't do since I am now retired.

Thanks for the idea!
