Portfolio management 29th Sept 2013

Was just about to post Buy MTU when I discovered it goes exdiv on Monday!
Would have got the divi drop but not the divi!
As they say, "If plan A doesn't work, the alphabet has 25 more letters"
So... P Taker Buy ANZ no sells
P Hybrid no buys or sells
P Runner Sell GOLD Buy ANZ
ANZ goes exdiv early November, fully franked, last Nov paid 0.79

Recent ExDivs/Earnings/dividends payable have been added for the first time to the cash & this will clearly make a significant difference to the portfolios in the future.
(I should have been doing it for the last 4 years!)
MFG and TME were sold Mon at the open at 10.52 & 3.78 respectively.
CSL & SEK go exdiv next week.

Index Median Returns

You may have noticed that I'm moving into the Big Caps with my latest purchases.
That's because I've been doing a bit of research into the long term performance of the ASX Indices and discovered that over the last 15 years the ASX 20 has outperformed the ASX 50
 which has outperformed the ASX 100
 which has outperformed the ASX 300
which has outperformed the All Ords

Some further research shows the median gain for the past year and the same Indices is;
All Ords 6%
ASX 300 7%
 ASX 200 13%
 ASX 100 16%
  ASX 50 17%
  ASX 20 21%
I rest my case!
