Dow Jones 30 Stock Portfolio PSDS Scan 12-31-2013

The Dow Jones 30 Stock portfolio changed 4 stocks since the last scan. The new stocks are NKE, GS, V and UNH. This portfolio continues to be better diversified than most 401k Plans and the last 5 years have been kind to all as you can see.



One of my portfolios that was not well diversified was the World 20 ETF Portfolio which I did not design using the covariance matrix portfolio diverification ratio PDR because I did not have that tool back then.
