      The Zweig Total Return Fund: Grab the Bull By Its Horns
      Well done article Carla but I believe if you do further research you will be surprised to see that Martin Zweig does not actually manage the portfolio/fund. They run the fund in his style and he was involved in the genesis of the fund. He doesn't, however, make day-to-day calls on the fund. You can easily trade this fund as people buy in anticipation of the distribution (I hesitate to call it a dividend as they are clearly returning capital) and then it sells off - with the premium at 10% today I think you will see this fund take a serious hit on ex-dividend. If I were buying as a long-term investment I wouldn't want to buy at these levels.
