Thanks for the thots. I used to go for appreciation/momentum investing. Got my butt kicked when the tech bubble burst, but not so bad... :)

Like you, I see B&G as a good stock. However, they cut the div. once - .21. to .17. and there is no reason the think they could not just stop paying - I don't think that will happen.

Leveraged muni funds - PMF - got a bit of that. Also have a bit of govt bonds. Your advise about risk is taken well.

What fans of any stock fail to see is how easy (think last 18 months) it is for it all go away - ALD, ACAS, FRP...

I have mostly preferred issued - if bought right you get appreciation and income - :).

But recently have been looking at CEFs with low leverage and portfolio turnover.

A guy has to do what a guy has to do.

Got any investing ideas?
