I don't know if we will see a special dividend or not.

There are so many ways to play it.

I wonder if AOD buys any AWP shares? That would be an interesting play.

Have AOD buy up some AWP, then have AWP pay a special dividend to help AOD. It would also increase the PPS of AWP in the process.

I would like to ask Alpine what their priorities are with these funds right now?

NAV or PPS growth?

I'd hope the first, but that could cause harm to the PPS from what we are seeing.

The markets are rewarding the big dividends and slow NAV growth vs. smaller divs and nice NAV growth.

Alpine could increase the Dividends of AWP to get the PPS to pop, but what would that do to the long term value of the fund?

Alpine could also, cut the dividend on AOD?

Then again, I have no clue. My best guess is that they are just going to stay the course for the next few months. Jill thinks the markets will contiue to do well for the next few months...

I have my doubts.

Anyway, I just said a lot of nothing. Tomorrow should be interesting to listen to.
