Just one of a few I've dumped. I think they all go higher. :) So many new highs in this market we will soon have to lower the price from a dime a dozen to .09. Took my mom and daughter out of RNDY today @ $7.14. Nice gains, but I won't bring it up as they pay no more attention than the man in the moon.

Ha! Ha! ... WM was one that I dumped. I dumped it for the lowering dividend growth and growing pay out ratio. I wasn't getting any capital gains at the time either, so there wasn't anything worth hanging on to. I think WM got ticked off that I sold and it started rising just to spite me. I am personally responsible for your gain, You owe me. ... Ha!

Re: Waste Management, Inc. - New all time high Decided to peel off 30% of my WM shares to put into a better yielding dividend payer. Current yield in 3.3% so looking for a higher div w/ growth. May use the proceeds to start a position in CLMT w/ a 9% yield (company may cut their div). Even at 1/2 the yield, the company has several new projects that will generate higher FCF starting in 2014. Now may be a good time to begin to accumulate a position as earnings were not good and stock is selling off. Last on CLMT is $29.40/share but selling is quite heavy at almost 3x ADV. Two MLP's are also on my buy list; OKS and WPZ. These companies operate NG gathering and processing facilities own pipeline and storge assets and are benefiting from the growth of the U.S. domestic shale wells. All of these stocks should be held in a taxable account as they issue K1's and you must deal w/ the UBTI. EKS
