$OXLC and $ECC were the biggest laggards for me. somehow the patience is waning . Also seems income investors are moving towards more risky yiledmax and other funds. I will have to respond and keep diluting from these traditional instruments to more risky ones. I will keep faith in my cornerstone $CLM , $CRF ones . It has served so well for me for so many years and no complaints

$CRF I know it’s early, but looking forward into October, unless we can get some serious NAV growth, I believe that we see a significant reset to the dividend. I would hope for a maintain or slight raise, but do not want to see the “normal” drop.

$CLM currently holding 6,000 shares in our shared portfolio with a current yield of 18.11% @ $8.11/share with a $7.63/share basis. I am expecting $734.40/month in dividends which have been declared for another 3 months through Sept. 30th and will be declared soon for the remainder of 2025 @ $0.1224/share. Screenshot of my spreadsheet showing our current holdings in our his & hers Roth IRAs. Used to be heavily weighted to extremely high-yielding etfs, but recently changed some positions. Second screenshot shows the 18.11% yield getting augmented by the gain of $2870.61 makes the annualized yield 25.52% and then factoring in annual income with total cost shows Yield on Cost is 19.25%. Just numbers. last screenshot is just bonus numbers for clm & $CRF (removed 6/20/25). I think we'll hang on to this one for a little while... ...and I remain mildly

$OXLC well, it appears that the Non discounted drip activity has subsided and I'm guessing we're headed for about a $4.19 closing price and a $3.9805 drip price. Meanwhile, the NAV drips for $CLM & $CRF are $6.73 and $6.51 with premiums of 20% and 19% resulting in $1.37 and $1.24 above the current share price! Not too bad. And finally, $ULTY & $YMAX keep moving up and thankfully, I have a nice little capital gain in addition to the huge weekly dividends.

$CRF is it necessary to sell this during a rights offering? Isn’t it easier to just buy the cheaper shares and continue stacking? Everything I see on YouTube says to play the offering and buy back after it’s complete. Also, I understand it just went through one so this is mainly for educational purposes. Thanks in advance.

$YMAX $ULTY $OXLC $CRF $CLM It seems the share price for both YMAX and ULTY have leveled off today. YMAX is headed for 115% of average volume and ULTY is headed for another super heavy day at about 400% of normal. I've been invested in these now for 5 weeks and my 6th dividend is this Friday. I'm up almost 2% on my average cost in addition to another 3% up from dividends. It's wonderful to hit a good entry point every once in a while, unlike OXLC which is my biggest holding by far, but I am struggling with a 5% net loss for the past 18 months including the discounted drip. I have been very lucky with CLM and CRF for several years now and these two have provided me with my best returns by far. Hopefully, the OX will eventually recover to where it should be at $5.50+ and I'll be able to retire in modest comfort.

I have 1k shares of $CRF that i will probably sell, and i will also probably add another 1k shares to the 2k shares of $CLM i currently own to make 3k shares. Almost enough. So, soon, probably. Currently holding 20k shares of $OXLC, which is enough, for now. Already sold all my 'g' shares of $GOF and $GUT, which is kinda sad. Sniff, sniff. Being left with only those 2 cefs should make my life a little simpler, allowing me to deal with my health issues and my wife’s dementia (always a fun time). Now, i just need to find a fairly stable etf with a high yield for some income. You will note my use of "probably" and "should" in the above digital manifesto. In other news, my son is recovering after having both ankles crushed because he was run over by a Massachusetts DOT truck in April when he was setting out cones for a lane taper. His sister set up a gofundme if anyone is interested. We're not rich. I've done all i can. If anyone needs me, @PennyWeasel has my email.

OK, changed my allocations. Sold all $GOF & $GUT for profits (several months of dividends!) and *may* sell $CRF. Added 2,000 to $CLM & 10,000 to $OXLC to make it a fairly good day. How'd youse guys do?
