10 companies that control everything.
#1
Well not everything, but almost. They all pay a dividend. Getting into a basket of these stocks when div yields creep up may be a good idea.

Too bad Mars is a private company. There's only two types of food, Snickers & everything else.

“While the dividend itself is merely a rearrangement of equity, over time it's more like owning an apple tree. The tree grows the apples back again and again and again, and the theoretical value of the tree doesn't change just because of when the apples are about to fall.” - earthtodan

I thought this article on Seeking Alpha was interesting as well.

Unfortunately a portfolio of those 10 underperform the S&P.

On the way up, sure.

My blackjack play over the last 3 months has out performed these stocks.

Cool, I own 7 of these, nuts!

PG, YUM, KO, K, GIS, PEP, and UL

KO being my largest position but it's still relatively small.

I've been watching KRFT and MDLZ, might buy some later this year.

Too true, over the long term it is a sound portfolio.

No, they do not underperform if your metric is current dividend yield. They outperform by a lot.

I was referring to total return in the last bull run. IMO, measuring anything else doesn't make a lot of sense.
