If we are going to talk Closed end Funds here is a hand full of Hot ones. I put HQH on the end , to compare to. quote.yahoo.com There are 6 that if you take a look at the dividend and add it to total you will find every one beat the S&P 500 for the year. --------------------- It's also this dividend that make them a lot less risky, as if the market does take a tumble you will be making some money. ------------ AS for super hot over 5 years. quote.yahoo.com And don't cut the dividend short or make little of it... while it's running about 10% now at the price you would have paid 5 years ago..that = 20% on original your investment per year.. those three CEs have kicked the S&P by at least 50% or more over the 5 year period thanks to the dividend.. I doubt you will find any open end funds that have a 5 yr track record near that good. If you do I want to hear about them. ---------------------- Now I have not done all the work I need to do in CEs , so if any I posted look interesting, do some leg work and dig up some more data on them and pass on what you find. ------------------------ I don't want any CE that don't pay a dividend of some sort, at least a small one. There are Open Ended Mutual Funds that buy CE funds but often they are restricted from buying anything that does not have any dividend. -------------------------- Also A good healthy dividend kills short sellers..as they have to pay that dividend any time they are short on ex date. If the market tanks a CE with out a dividend is much more likely to get shorted, than one that's paying a dividend. I also like the ones that pay monthly for that same reason. ----------------- Jim
