Re: why so heavy in Utes and nothing in industrials? I’m surprised not to see the likes of LMT, UNP, CAT etc.

The yields are too low for this particular portfolio. I like the industrials for the younger folks and those in middle age, but once in retirement, if the goal is income, you go with higher yielding assets.

In that particular portfolio, the lower yields are unacceptable.

In my personal portfolio, I do own companies like HD, PAYX, CMI, etc. I try to balance high vs low yields to a certain degree.
