Hey guys, I'm not sure if I should be posting this. I am looking at building a portfolio for long-term growth. Goal: steady stream of dividends, looking at holding for at least a couple of years. I'm most likely going to start with $50k (half from cash savings, and half from DC pensions from my old employer).
I've been fooling around with Google Finance for the last little while, and have short-listed the following:
TS 33.63 +0.98 (3.00%) 6.27B
JE 11.07 +0.25 (2.31%) 1.53B
SLF 25.03 +0.60 (2.46%) 14.53B

Thoughts?
