Q: Hi 5I Research team.
I presently own OCS.UN which I believe is a closed end fund. Could you please explain what a closed end fund is? I have held this for about a year and a half and am under water with this fund. Recently the fund has been going up. It pays a 10% dividend which is great. Would you expect this fund to continue to go up. Is the fund tied to the interest rate and would it continue to go up if the interest rate goes up. Thanks for your help

Q: Can 5i tell me if bond coupons have "ex-payout dates". My transaction records show that the date coupon is posted is always on the nearest weekday to the maturity date of the Bond. I presume there is a posting lag, but I would like to know what date I can sell the bond and still get the coupon

I enjoy the service you provide And wish the team a happy Yearend and many more of them in the future.

Q: I've seen an article recently that speculates that the next paradigm shift will be a faster expansion of the "Internet of Things", especially by large industrial companies that over the next 30-40 years will automate more processes using equipment and sensors provided and monitored by outside companies. Names mentioned that are expected to benefit most were GE, Honeywell, Rockwell, Cisco and IBM. I'd appreciate your opinion on whether this seems like a good idea for long-term investment.
