Google and dogs

Larry says watch out for da Google!

Here is a link to the preliminary dogs of the dow for next year. I wonder if it might be a good idea to buy these names this week with the potential that next week they will be snapped up by those that follow that investment strategy?

Never trust da google, son.

I've got about half of those stocks but didn't buy them because
they were the dogs of the Dow.  Just because they were good
deals.

The Dow dogs usually outperform the others but I have no
idea if you can front trade it or not.  If I followed that plan
I'd already have them I think.
