Demand for which?

2 year? Not surprising.

10 year? Low demand, even lower issuance, still rising. Very odd I agree.

2 exactly

Probably a good play...curious that my FSELX is up 25% since April 17 when I bought it.
On the otherhand my $100K: GLD, SLV, CENX, REMX, COPX, SLX, GLTR, SPCX are down 15% since April. I refuse to buy high sell low. And the $65K GLD/SLV profit I took in Feb doesn't hurt much. .

I think my $45K in REMX, GLTR, GLD, SLV will do do good in the next 2 years and if not...meh. that 100K is my "fun money" even though I am not well to do in the slightest. But I am very "comfortable"

I think in the near term I will shed most of my CDs and just do the IBonds

Surprised me this am so I sold half

Wild trader @Zee09 would be proud!

I mean i thought the IPO Price was fair enough valuation but completely fell off that now boom

SO.............. Who is into "Covered Call ETF's". Specifically QQQI.

I see it as a easy way for some income, some growth, all at very favorable tax treatments.

Current yeild is 14%. ( 1.16% paid monthly.)

I threw $250k at it..... to test it out for while. Yeilds about $3k per month.

NAV and Distribution seem steady. So far, so good.
Thoughts?

According to Grant's the sweet spot in the bond market is selected lower rated corporates like B to BB+. I've been looking at high yield corporate CEF's today. I found four with negative z-scores and larger than 3 yr average discounts. These are also Morningstar 4 or 5's as well. Reasonable volatility for these type funds from the Max charts at least for my purposes. I'm just looking to spice up my overall yield a little at the margin. These will be a small allocation for me. I picked out BLW, AWF, GHY, and HYT. Thoughts would be appreciated. I currently hold RCTIX also.
