RE:ATM equity programThe AT the Market program has been on going in many of the split funds, and has not seemed to stop offerings from happening. If the stock is trading at a decent premium to NAV, (usually around 10% or higher) then they will try and flog an offering at a premium price to NAV.
Sometimes the balance between preferreds and commons gets out of whack, especially with the ATM program , so they will do an offering to try and keep the number of preferreds equal to the number of commons.
