I am new to the board, but this forum seems to provide some
solid exchange of info which is a nice change from most other
boards.
I have normally invested in exchange traded
funds, but the CEF's (if properly researched)
seem to offer a better value.
I am currently reviewing four CEF's: CET, BME,
BDV and JHFT. I'd like to play some sectors
with CEF's and BDV & JHFT (Financials) and
BME (Pharma) provide some
good alternatives (I think). I like CET because
of the long history as well as the rich dividend
and discount. However I noticed that it has a
rather large investment in the "Plymouth Rock
Group" and I have had a problem getting data
on this company. I assume it is a LP or a privately
held corporation.
I would appreciate any help you could
provide in CEF's in general or any info on the
specific CEF's I mentioned or
just some other CEF's that you feel represent a good
option.
Thanks,
pv
