I am reducing ProShares R2000 Dividend Growers ETF (SMDV) again and adding this time to Vanguard Short-Term Inflation-Protected Securities Index ETF (VTIP). The trades: Sell 15 SMDV at $72.97 Buy 25 VTIP at $50.29 The updated model portfolio:

I still like ProShares R2000 Dividend Growers ETF (SMDV) a lot, but it has increased again and is up a lot year-to-date. It is not my largest equity holding right now, but I am cutting it again to add to a non-equity ETF, Vanguard Short-Term Treasury Index Fund ETF (VGSH). I last trimmed SMDV in mid-April at a higher price, adding to an ETF I no longer own, RSP. The price on 4/17 was $73.52, which was very near the 52-week high of 74.43 in February. I had sold some on April 9
