I was looking for a Canadian equivalent to Russell IWO small cap.

Q: If possible can you kindly comment on PennantPark Investment Corporation.
What caught my attention was significant insider buying in the last 6 weeks.
In addition I was impressed with today's notice to shareholder press release.
nasdaq.com shows a 31% dividend payable Apr. 1. Is that correct ?
Thank-you

Q: Greetings,

A trader(yes - not an investor) recommended a couple of option selling strategy CEFs funds that can do well in this market. i am not comfortable selling call options myself but understand how they work and wanted to get your opinion of a little bit riskier trade to supplement an otherwise med conservative investor. Looking for dividends in this low interest environment. I expect that companies will start cutting dividends here so need a replacement way to generate income in the short term only.
thanks

Q: Neither of my Cdn bank online brokerages show any new shares for UTX this morning, and UTX now trades as RTX as I understand it. But I'm reading conflicting info on what will happen with my UTX shares. Will they just become RTX? Will I receive spin off shares? A google search doesn't seem to give a clear answer.

Q: I bought a half position in this company in January and am looking at buying more with the pullback.

I'm curious if you think the dividend looks sustainable going forward. in 2019 it looks like they payed out more in dividends than they earned.

Your thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks
