I'm sticking with PGN as well. I'm willing to see how it plays out by merging with DUK. ... I used to own DUK. Looks like I'll own it again.

I'm going to hold CTL even if they don't raise the dividend. It's yielding above 7%, my yield on cost is higher.

I don't need every company to raise the dividend. I'm willing to hold those yielding above 5% even if they miss a dividend increase. I try to look at the portfolio as a whole. Some are starters, some are role players. I need both.

CTL is currently yielding 7.8%, slightly higher for me based on the prices I paid. It'd take a good while for a, say, 3% (but growing) yielder to get there. I'll hold mine.
