Week 92 update. Gold and PSEC


EDIT: At the time this blog entry was posted I had a Youtube video here. That has been removed but I want the rest of my content to be remain. Nothing hidden no past mistakes ignored. All out in the open.


Ok I admit in this video I am talking too softly.

PSEC is going to make a big impact on the Active Accounts monthly income. The question is WHEN do I buy it. I might be able to wait and get a 10% better price looking at the 2012 low. I also have that SPY Put and my thought is we are getting a market pullback.

However, when a company is undervalued is the market going to pull it down? PSEC is already paying a 12% yield, one of if not the highest currently for BDCs. Oh and then there is the fact that their 2012 NII is +50% more then 2011 yet share price has risen only 20%.

The question comes down to... is PSEC something I want to nitpick and risk 10% gain in shareprice and possibly miss out on?

  1. I would get PSEC as soon as possible. I think it will be better positioned for interest rate hikes compared to my REITs.

    I respect TCAP too, aside from the 10% daily drop that it had last year, I have never had the chance to cost-average down on my shares. PSEC has been steady-priced and the monthly dividends are always nice. I will not drop TCAP until it crosses through the 30$ mark though.

  3. Yeah I made no purchases today. I'll wait for the dust to settle.
    Today is exactly why I bought that SPY put. I am sure there is more downward price action to come too. Actually sold ABT from the old Model Portfolio this morning. Seemed like a good time to take profits when I'm expecting a pullback in the general markets.

  4. I am also looking to establish a position in PSEC. However I just recently openened a position in Apple and am now almost fully invested. Need to wait a bit before opening up a position in PSEC. Hope it does not skyrocket anytime soon.
