Re: I only see 2 problems with FSC     16-Oct-09 07:04 am    
I will state what other posters have implied: FSC is trading on forward dividend yield, not current dividend yield. Forward dividend yield is definitely > 11% and might be approaching 12%.

FSC is probably also trading on the a 'no further dilution' basis. TCAP is definitely on dilution watch. ;-) ARCC always is given the state of their distribution coverage. TICC only wish they could sell equity, but at least they have their credit facility issues behind them. With TICC, the dividend you're getting is the dividend you're going to get for a while...close to 12%. My guess is you'll find that if you bought FSC at yesterday's close, you'll end up getting a similar yield, but better capital appreciation.
