Introduction Compact

I have done very well on Canadian closed end funds buying when the discounts are 30% and selling when 15%. I believe there are opportunities in Installment receipts and looking into them as an EVENT! I own or have owned EVT,UNC,CWF,Multifund.IR, AFL.IR,CGI and a few others...Lets share some ideas!!
