Hi Kyros, I've unloaded most of my trading position but I'm keeping a large position. I was in these before they were trendy for the income and hedge against low interest rates. There are also other business trusts (cold storage, logistics, sardines peat moss, food manufacturing, power generation, pipelines). I went overweight in the energy ones (largest portion anyway) in January anticipating some silliness coming and a possible perfect storm (but mother nature not cooperating), and they are much more forgiving than common stock. So yes they serve their intended purpose quite admirably and occasionally provide a bonus ;o) Yes I've got lots still.http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=19031428 regards Kastel
