Took a look at Boulder. Two things popped up- they employ leverage, and they have near 10% of assets invested in something I'm trying to nail down.

"INVESTMENT COMPANIES - 9.5%"

ACM Government Securities Fund
Kemper Multi-Market Income Trust
MFS Charter Income Trust
MFS Multimarket Income Trust
MSDW Emerging Market Debt Fund
Oppenheimer Multi-Sector Income Trust
Putnam Master Income Trust
Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust
Putnam Premier Income Trust
RCM Stategic Global Government Fund

These are fairly obscure and thus far I've not found too much out about their holdings. The first is ACG, a bond fund.

I like to understand Boulders philosphy, and think understanding what they pick and why helps. Perhaps because these investments are obscure they represent better values.

I looked at bouldertotalreturn.com and I see that the majority of their holdings are either REITS or other investment companies. A preliminary look at those that are not, shows two that I might like to examine a little closer....WSC and JDN. I'll look at those if I get the time.

Thanks for your kind words.
