The stock price is up today as well, and it has moved into 14th place on my largest holdings list.

Great news.

Believe it or not the stock is still down from $131 set 5 years ago, so it has more room to run.

I agree it has a bright future. A much stronger company now than it was 5 years ago too.

HRZN jumped up high today, and I went looking for news on why. One thing I found was that they put out a special one month dividend bonus of 0.05/share.

https://seekingalpha.com/news/3758601-ho...g-dividend

"Also, the company declared a special dividend of $0.05 - Payable Dec. 15; for shareholders of record Nov. 18; ex-div Nov. 17."

So we are getting close to that ex-div date.

Some of my high div payers are losing their yield percentage because they've experienced significant price growth but haven't increased their dividend. HRZN is down to 6.4%. RQI is down to 5.64%. Hopefully these guys will raise their dividend soon.
