Hi Steve - Re: Sources of Funds My approach will be to sell some of the preferreds as a source of funds (and/or over valued positions). The preferreds are capped at PAR (usually $25.00/share). I am using the MHR-PC as a parking spot for funds. It has good liquidity and pays 10.25% monthly (exdivided on the 15th of each month). Also, when I bring in new positions it is done in at least three small chunk buys. The big surprise for 2011-2012 will be when and how much the bond market bubble explodes. This will resolve itself on the exit strategy of QE2-QE4. Once the bubble bursts, it might be a good time to ladder in some of this cheap bond debt. EKS
