Lorne,
I use the same strategy and use leverage as well as the borrowing side has a cost of approx 5%. The yield side with the solid trusts that I use are approx 12%. My thinking is to get in just before ex div, recover the dividend, a probable capital gain and get out asap after the ex div date. This has been working successfully for some time. If perchance one gets caught, the simple stragegy is to hold and yield the 7%.
