I've been back in the market about a year and a half steadily following the Dividend Growth strategy. As of today, MO is my biggest gainer, showing up net 39.2 %. Next closest is a Utility...ES at 9.34%.

I use Quicken to track my investments and it adds my dividend reinvestments to my initial cost basis and calculates returns off of the total, so it doesn't give me a true return on investment if you want to look at just the initial investments and total return. Someday I plan on setting up a spreadsheet to do just that.

Meanwhile, I'm sitting back...watching my investments grow even in trying times and my only concerns are if I should add more in and if so, where.
