This is a well diversified model that is dynamic in that we no longer believe that 'buy and hold' is a viable strategy for any
investment vehicle.
By High Yield we mean that we have included Income Issues from the lower end of the quality spectrum--although there
have been many which are decent quality yet provide high yields and we have taken advantage of these mispricings.
We will model with a $100,000 portfolio and will credit the model with Money Market rates using Cash Reserves from
Fidelity Investments as the Money Market Rate (discontinued 'cash' interest).
The investment goal will be consistent returns from interest and dividends with a secondary goal of capturing capital
gains from the purchase of 'mispriced' preferred, common and debt securities.
