RE:NAV August 1 "the NAV may only need to close over $15.00 on any day between now and the next announcement in order for a dividend to be declared".
Your're right in the comment on the pref holders.Sure that wouldn't go over well. Quadravest wants to suck and blow at the same time with this kind of guideline. That policy does however give even more ammunition to people following this forum who short (me included) Quadravest will protect it's a$$ with a liberal interpretation of the $15 mark so there is that knowledge that if you have a short position, you'll probably be on the hook for the div payment even if the SP has only been over $15 for one day in the declaration period.
