Entered this week on the basis that the top 20 has been doing poorly over the last 12 months or so and that the SP was still significantly low enough to enter, the low was back in April @ 8.40 ~ using a dogs of the Dow rationale i figure its time to buy some exposure to the top as i have very little in my portfolio, plus the yield is attractive and usually about 50% franked, went ex div on Monday.
