PAST TOP PICK
Nov 17, 2005
(A Top Pick July 26/05. Down 17%.) Was a conservative (?) pick at the time and was a basket of income trusts and of course income trusts got hit hard. The worst could be over, but this is diversified, so you are not taking as big a hit as you would with one trust.

COMMENT
Pays an 11% dividend yield. How are they paying that? They probably hold a lot of Canadian infrastructure but those stocks pay only 3-4%. The US component is also dragging down that yield. There's a mismatch here in holdings vs. the 11% yield. The total return will probably be 5-7%, but the high yield will limit share performance. This is a warning. Look at their top holdings and see how you feel about that.

COMMENT
Not a fan of closed fund since the underlying securities will deviate from the net asset value of the fund. There are big dislocations. Underlying holdings are good quality companies. On a weighted basis, the yield is 3%, but the fund is paying 8%. This comes from the capital gains. It is not pure yield.
