IRS Reportedly Confirms $1,390 Stimulus Checks For Eligible Americans
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/irs-reportedly-confirms-1-390-113105179.html
It’s not the truth right in the article is says that this story is coming out of India. Of all places you would think if it was legitimate it would be announced all over the news media in this country
“according to a report by India’s The Economic Times newspaper”
Furthermore, right in the story, the IRS denies it
It was real right from the news media in India *LOL*
I mean it was right there in the news story where it came from.
Also in the link is the IRS denied it
I never actually believe much anything from Yahoo. And I have said that before.
YIK
(yes I know*LOL*)

I am getting agencies called also. I just looked at 7 yr FFCB's yielding 5.25% ish to maturity but only 1.6-3.7% to call. Our bond market changing to these European style continuous calls is so frustrating. I guess I'll look at adding to my CLO ETF's CLOA, JAAA, and PAAA. Any other ideas on income investments would be much appreciated.

I use those as well, not as stable as I hoped, but good.
VGLT and sell covered calls.
SGOV, BILS. BUXX, GSST, OBIL
JBND
Find the best MM accounts
Some BDC's are still reasonable
Shop the odd high yield risky funds. QDVO has done great for me, QQQX killing it. QQQI I was doing great, then my option was executed (all profitable, will buy back in). CEF's doing well CII I'm up 40% since April. Even PDI, PAXS, PTY, and PDO doing well.
Shop preferreds, pick 5 favorites and wait on them for a good price. Be patient.
Thanks Pablo that's great. I own BUXX and GSST. I own some BDC's and quite a few BDC bonds. I can't figure PSEC out. I know the analysts are afraid of their PIK credit exposure but they truck right along making bond payments on time. Their new issues this morning are yielding 7.5 to 8.0% on 3-7 yr bonds. I can't pull the trigger though. I love CEF's but I like to buy them at low Z scores and larger discounts than their 3 yr avgs.. Hard to do that right now. BGT is one of my favorites but right now it's at a 2.99% premium. I'm fixing to go look at your other suggestions. Do you have any thoughts on EIC or RCTIX? Again thanks very much.
I have not checked PSEC in a long while - may not be able to today
Actually don't know EIC or RCTIX - will check later
No need to thank.

No need to thank.
i believe in selling high and buying low. Unlike many amateur investors who chase stocks that are soaring and panic selling those that have gone down. In July I sold my entire tech and AI related portfolio and bought beaten down stocks paying decent dividends in the 6% to 7% range.
I believe that's called timing the market. Impossible over the long term. Otherwise you'd own an island by now.
Technically Friday, right?
I assume since no one is buying, they have all their payments and no new mortgages to buy?
You need to be more optimistic!!!
There will be a 10 year coming up mid September. Will probably be well South of 2%.
These were Federal Farm Credit Bank ones. Farmers still need lots of loans.
