simply watchlist for a personal strat i'm curious about

look at the largest heavy-weight appreciated stocks in the world...the biggest amongst the biggest that have appreciated strongly in past 9-11 years.
More specifically have done decently in keeping its appreciated value in past year and past 5 years.

And with this list you have automatically the most large expensive stocks

These are highly likely to underperform the index the next 5 years as reality of growth expectations will catch up to the them as the world continues to evolve.

The big market caps to short:
UTX, APPL, MMM, ORCL, AMZN, CAT, SU

As the index beats these over time, it will be beaten by a wider margin by dividend ETFs
Dividend ETFs to buy (to offset the shorts):
VYM, DLN, FVD, DTN, SDY, FDL, PEY

Just purchase shares for this ETF which seeks investments results from the Value Line Dividend Index. This Multi-Cap ETF uses the Value Line Safety Ranking System to select companies with higher than average dividend yield as compare to the S&P 500 Composite Price Index. Those stocks that make the cut are then added equally weighted in each of the securities in the index.
