Bob, I've been accumulating MXF lately, too, though MEF is more likely to give a quick payoff from open-ending or other dramatic discount reduction, IMHO, because it is much smaller and management is under immediate attack from shareholder rights champion Phil Goldstein, with possible institutional support -- see fnews.yahoo.com
MXF's advantages include lower expense ratio of about 1.0 (better than most foreign funds) and higher discount -- only slightly above 52-week average but then the current average discount for all foreign CEFs is more than 4 points below 52-wk average. -- Shoe (long MXF and MEF)
