Thanks E_K_S

Sure. My two highest yielders are APU and HASI. HASI is a more recent addition and a half-weight one. OHI, and T follow soon after that.

My longest held ones go back to June 2012 (O and PG) - well, there is AAPL also, but I have been in and out of it since the late 1990's and would have been better off just holding it. A lot of positions were added in the second half of 2012 and early 2013, which is when I started moving profits out of Apple options trading into dividend stocks. That is probably the best move I have ever made as an investor.

I sold INTC when it went the 5th quarter without raising a dividend. In 2012-13 I sold some of my early picks as I started paying for attention to dividend growth. COP was one of those, as was Eli Lily. The most recent was KMI, last week. Also sold CVX after it froze the dividend.

Fidelity just had a hiccup online, so I can't look at activities and orders for 2015 right now. Just took a look. KMI is the only recent position sold in its entirety. The rest are the positions I have trimmed. I think I also trim CLX due to valuation.

I have been trimming some positions, but that is more due to valuation than disappointment. Included on those are CLX and LMT.
