ABSTRACT:
A technique is provided for selecting a portfolio of securities for investment purposes. Specifically, the technique utilizes two types of securities-related data: dividend yields and buyback ratios. A group of securities is ranked by the sum of each security's dividend yield and buyback ratio; a number of the securities having the highest combined dividend yields and buyback ratios are selected for investment. The technique may include a computer for storing the buyback ratios and dividend yields.
