Mechanical investment strategies

Yeah, same for my dividend growth portfolio: it’s a total outlier that started as a dividend growth play but became a capital gain thing like nothing else, really (at least for my portfolio).

I only have soft rules:

  • dividend yield drops below 2%: company goes on (sell) watch list
  • position size grows above 5%: company goes on (sell) watch list
  • other attractive (according to a separate list of soft rules) companies move into buy territory: sell some of the companies matching the above criteria, buy some of the new “attractive” ones

I’m able to follow them, mostly. :wink:
