"it's a fantastic way for individual investors to get leverage as long as short term rates are as ridiculously low as they are now."

Definitely can't argue with that. Back on May 29th I posted that I believed BDCL was at a good spot. It is up
about a buck fifty and I believe due for a dividend.

I have to give kudos to those that have taken advantage during this time frame, but when the time comes that
rates rise, I don't think looking at the leverage just on CEFL is going to show a good picture. Leverage on top of leverage.

You all be careful out there.
