"My priority, my main objective, is to establish an income stream from dividends that is reliable, predictable and increasing." ===== That's my MO also .. With that in mind .. I've got PGN which is in a merger agreement with DUK .. I'm going to stay with PGN and take the DUK shares assuming that the merger closes even though they've ( PGN ) failed to raise their quarterly payout for the last 10 quarters .. I've also got CEG which is in a merger agreement with EXC .. Same situation as above as CEG has had a flat payout for the last 10 quarters .. So, I'm planning to hold for the merger and take the EXC shares .. EXC has also had the same quarterly dividend for awhile, but at a higher nominal yield that the CEG payments .. Two others on the watchlist for potential replacement are CTL and PPL if either or both fail to increase their payout over the coming year .. I've got both at the same quarterly payment for the last 6 quarters .. Anyone else contemplating some adjustments to their holdings ?? Triff ..
