  • CEFs for Week of 11/20/09: Conservative Tilt [View article]
    NFJ was discussed on CNBC last week as a good buy. It had dropped about 60% in March because of a cut in distribution and now has about a 4%+ yield. Comment was made that the distribution should be increased. Distribution is covered and there is a positive UNII. Now looks like a conservative buy. How do you see this fund?

  • CEFs: Discount at Historical Average  [View article]
    with weakness in employment, housing, retail etc is there any good reason funds that hold goveernment/agency bonds sold off? My thought is perhaps a strong stock market has temporarily changed the flow of funds and weakness in bonds will become stronger a gain. Where would you get your income from now?

    you are making the mistake of an inexperience investor by using short term and rear view mirror performance. I'm surprised someone with your experience would make this comparison.
