After closing position on Baxter International and Baxalta Incorporated, it was time to reallocate those funds. I was playing around with the idea of opening a new position either on Caterpillar or Diageo Plc but decided to finally add on existing positions on AT&T and Aflac Inc. There would have been better valuations for both of these during the past 6 months or so but it doesn’t matter much for the long term.
On August 4th I bought 43 shares of AT&T (NYSE:T) for 34,67 USD per share and 23 shares of Aflac Inc. (NYSE:AFL) for 64,09 per share. For AT&T this translates to a yield of 5,4% and for Aflac Inc. roughly 2,4%.
