I won't say a word.

Of course it would help if I owned the stock!

Two last notes on the trusts:
1-http://www.siliconinvestor.com/subject.aspx?subjectid=17783 good thread for the Canadian trusts of all stripes.
2-if interest rates are to rise a lot the trusts may lose some zing, especially riskier ones as some folks opt for more secure interest bearing instruments. For example mine are all tax sheltered anyway so the tax advantages of return of capital and dividends over simple interest are lost to me. I'm in it strictly for the yield at the moment. If interest rates rise enough other instruments may become more appealing based on yield / risk basis. Just thinking aloud here. My target is to get a large portion of my portfolio into very secure decently paying returns. The rest I can play with ;o)
