Have you ever heard of the Dogs-of-the-Dow system. It's a well known system in the stock and trading business. There are several stock brokers who have earned a lot of money by working with this system. They have been using it for several years now. They think it's a safe way to let your money grow slowly but consistently.

If you know the Dogs-of-the-Dow system you know that the system makes on a yearly basis a better percentage then the index. If you started using the system several years ago and used it properly for those years you would have earned a nice percentage each year. Double figures are not uncommon and a high yield income of 17.7 % average annual return since 1973 has been made. The Dow Jones Industrial Average overall return was 11.9 % during that same period. So you would have made almost 6 % more each year. Not bad at all!

If you have never heard about it then let me explain how that system works.

At some point in the year, mostly early January, you take a look at all the companies that give you the highest dividend payment.

You make a basket (several companies added together) then you decide how much percentage you will spend on each company. Next you buy stocks of each company to a curtain amount of money you have available and wait until the year passes.

When the year passes you can see the difference between your starting amount and ending amount. Now you can see if you have earned some money and if so how much.

If you don't want to trade frequently the Dogs-of-the-Dow system is a very relaxing, defensive and profitable way of investing.

If you want to make a higher profit, trading can be a better and faster way.
