Re: Old Folk Portfolio ... Sales

With higher interest rates heading our way, I'm thinking the cost of leverage will rise and with that, leveraged CEF's may take a further drop in price and/or cut distributions.

With this in mind, the following CEF's were sold:

CCD .. UTF .. GDV .. GOF ..THQ .. EIC .. EVG .. JRO

With some of the proceeds from these sales I bought positions in:

ARES .. BX .. ORCC ..
