I'm having trouble reconciling that with what you posted the other day:

If *your* portfolio includes some low yielders (mine does) then those are not part of the HYP, either you split the portfolio (in name) or you accept it's not an HYP, but either way you don't raise those shares on the HYP board. ...
My guess is Mel was talking about shares which have always been low yield, do not belong in a High Yield Portfolio and shouldn't be discussed until they potentially fit the TLF guidance.
I didn't feel particularly confused until I noticed this thread
If you want to be further confused, try reading this one and related links, which you may well have missed:

I'm not a HYPster but do read the board in question and as sure as eggs are eggs, this Topic will blow over in time, as have so many in the past.
Until there's yet another one.
