I am returning to the subject of closed-end funds. There is no sector of the markets that is more overlooked, less understood, and more full of promise, than closed-end funds. Closed-ends funds should not be purchased for appreciation, though you may get some. They should be utili...
The only space left with any real yield are some of the closed-end funds. Many of the ones that I like have monthly dividends and while most have leverage, the cost of leverage is just this side of zero. The risk/reward ratio makes some sense, where it doesn't in most other fixed-...

There was one article after another article, every place you looked, that the U.S. equity markets were going to correct anywhere from 25% to 50% down. That has not exactly been the case. The American stock markets have been up and up and up as the wrong focus was used. I have said, countless t...
"Here Comes Tonto" I am older than most of you. Not all of you, of course, but most of you. I have memories of Gene Autrey, and Roy Rogers, and "A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty, 'Hi Ho Silver!' The Lone Ranger!" Some of you will not even know who I am ta...
Originally published April 8, 2020 It has always been interesting to me how the media concentrates almost 100% on the equity markets. It is almost like the bond markets didn't exist or, if they did, that it was on some far off planet that didn't deserve anyone's attention. I have always fe...
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission modifies some rules for business development companies and other closed-end funds, making them more similar to those followed by operating companies. More news on: Amplify High Income ETF, Invesco CEF Income Composite Portfolio ETF, Cohen&S...
