RE Bonds - you are correct that the bonds yields are erratic for lightly traded issues, so it could be that 20% yield is an aberration. I have seen more consistent yield of 13-14% for Kimco bonds. Kimco is a better credit than BDN, IMO. In my IB simulation account I have done some test trades and found that it takes a long time to get the ask price, if ever. No real life trades yet, so you can call me a rookie with respect to bonds.
