Energy taking another hit today.
Utilities continue to drop.
Intel (INTC) down ~3.5%
Target (TGT) down ~4%
ETA: What just happened to Walgreen's?
dropped 5% in a second. still overpriced though...

There is nothing wrong with a yield strategy.
Bonds don't have a lot of room to run. There is a large & growing community of older investors seeking yield.
There are certainly stocks among the div yielders that are overvalued right now, but if you're investing on even a 10 year horizon, those yields are pretty juicy as a class and they provide some downside protection.
And heck, the Dow is only up something like 1% this year and is lagging the S&P and Nasdaq pretty significantly the last few years.
I'd much rather hold a basket of yielders than growth right now.
