My take is similar to some of replies already. large caps will mimic dow and S&P 500. Small caps can lead us to the promised land better.

I do plan on an individual stock position in my portfolio for growth and dividend income.

1/3 would be in blue chips (PG, MSFT, GE and many others already mentioned). This is around 10 stocks.
1/3 would be utilities. This is for a slightly higher yield. This is around 5-10 stocks.
1/3 would be in small caps/micrco caps WHICH PAY A DIVIDEND. This is around 60 stocks. In january I entered a contest with these tickers. It is barely beating the S&P YTD. Mid cap value for sure, some real small companies included.
