2011 Buy List: Locked and Sealed

Here’s my 2011 Buy List. For tracking purposes, I assume it’s a $1,000,000 portfolio and each position is worth $50,000. Here’s each stock, ticker, starting price and number of shares. This is what I’m referring to when I discuss how well the Buy List is doing.

Company Ticker Dec. 31 Price Number of Shares
Abbott Laboratories ABT $47.91 1,043.6235
AFLAC AFL $56.43 886.0535
Becton, Dickinson & Co. BDX $84.52 591.5760
Bed Bath & Beyond BBBY $49.15 1,017.2940
Deluxe Corp. DLX $23.02 2,172.0243
Fiserv FISV $58.56 853.8251
Ford Motor Company F $16.79 2,977.9631
Gilead Sciences GILD $36.24 1,379.6909
Johnson & Johnson JNJ $61.85 808.4074
Jos. A. Bank Clothiers JOSB $40.32 1,240.0794

Leucadia National LUK $29.18 1,713.5024
Medtronic MDT $37.09 1,348.0723
Moog MOG.A $39.80 1,256.2814
Nicholas Financial NICK $10.24 4,882.8125
Oracle ORCL $31.30 1,597.4441
Reynolds American RAI $32.62 1,532.8020
Stryker SYK $53.70 931.0987
Sysco SYY $29.40 1,700.6803
Wright Express WXS $46.00 1,086.9565

The five new stocks are Abbott Laboratories (ABT), Deluxe Corp. (DLX), Ford (F), Oracle (ORCL) and JPMorgan Chase (JPM).

The five stocks I’m deleting are Baxter International (BAX), Eaton Vance (EV), Eli Lilly (LLY), Intel (INTC) and SEI Investments (SEIC).

The average market value of the Buy List is $41.7 billion. The biggest is Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) at $170 billion. JPMorgan (JPM) and Oracle (ORCL) aren’t far behind at $166 billion and $158 billion respectively. The smallest by far is Nicholas Financial (NICK) at $168 million. The second smallest is Jos. A. Banks (JOSB) which is more than nine times larger.

The average forward P/E Ratio is 11.5 which is about 13% less than the S&P 500. Twelve of the 20 stocks pay a dividend. The average yield of the dividend payers is close to 2.6%. Spread over 20 stocks, the Buy List yields 1.54%.

Only five stocks have remained on for all five years; AFLAC (AFL), Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY), Fiserv (FISV), Medtronic (MDT) and Sysco (SYY).

That’s it. The list is now “lock and sealed,” and I can’t touch it until next year.
