EuroDogs (Dogs of Euro markets)

Description:

Last year, the Euro Dogs again beat the benchmark Dow Jones Stoxx 50, with a total return of 19%, versus 14%.

The Stoxx 50 covers 50 big blue-chip European companies. In the Euro Dogs strategy, 15 stocks are used, to keep roughly to the ratio for the original Dogs. (Stoxx is a joint venture of Deutsche Börse, Dow Jones and the SWX Swiss Exchange.)

2007 Euro Dogs portfolio has 12 old names and three new ones, with a robust, average 4.4% dividend yield.

Any Dogs portfolio is risky because it includes only a small group of stocks, often dominated by a few out-of-favor sectors. This year's pound has only two stocks that aren't financials or telecoms.
