I have sent ASA email messages with various question and suggestions including the need for a more detailed portfolio breakdown, but have yet to receive a reply.

The biggest problem I have is the way they calculate discount to NAV

For example on September 21, they report;

NAV = 20.73
Share Price = 18.81
Discount = 1.92
Percent = 10.2%

Now, I only have a degree in Electrical Engineering and an MBA is Finance so I am not very good at this high power math, but the discount to NAV should be comparing the discount (1.92) to NAV (20.73), which to me look like 9.3%.

They are reporting discount to market price 1.92/18.81=10.2%, which makes no sense to me, at all.
