I added MDT to the portfolio last week. This will be the first of three ‘off’ weeks intended to restore the $250+ per week pace of investment. The putrid performance of the broader market has infected the Royal Dividends portfolio. Read on, to find out which position would have been most worthy of new money.
This week, five of the portfolio holdings ranked in the Top Ten: BKH, MMM, MO, PII, and TGT.
| Ticker | Account Value |
| BKH | 1,014.30 |
| MMM | 2,012.96 |
| MO | 2,279.40 |
| PII | 852.70 |
| TGT | 1,072.30 |
The lowest amount belongs to PII and there is nothing that would preclude additional investment into that position, other than that of it being an off week.
