The Fund's investment objectives are to provide its unitholders with a stable stream of monthly distributions and to preserve and potentially enhance the net asset value of the Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest in any publicly listed security in the United States without sector-specific restrictions. The Fund may invest in portfolio securities in other geographies, focusing on permissible asset classes that include oil and gas securities, energy securities, other resource securities, as well as cash and short-term investments.

Massive discount to NAV

Massive discount to NAVGreetings,

This fund is now trading at a massive discount to NAV of about 15%.  They announced a normal course issuer bid to purchase up to 10% of the outstanding float, which should, theoretically, end up reducing the discount to NAV.  Indeed, purchasing shares at a heavy discount will be immediately incremental to NAV!

This looks like an excellent fund in that the management fees are fairly low and the annual yield now stands at about 6.73%.

Why is there such low interest in this fund?  Any comments would be appreciated.
