AINV. I have some shares as part of a package of bdc's. I have reduced positions in these companies when they have announced intentions to issue new stock at under book value. Company in press release still says it might want to issue new shares (Likely below market price and certainly below book value). Book value has been coming down (a negative). Otoh, dividend yield is still high on current low stock price and the new dividend cut. One has to wonder if the dividend will hold though. Analysts still seem to be negative: biz.yahoo.com AINV very disappointing to me: I'm down 2/3 on my purchases. Though that is irrelevant at this instant. Only matters what will happen going further. Not sure what I will do at this time with AINV. I'd not be a buyer of the stock, so no add for me; maybe just hold.
