"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.

It's a good problem to have if you bought them low and have a good YOC.  The good ones won't be hyped anymore due to the low div.  Eventually they get hammered and you can buy more with a good yield.  I'm usually out when the yield fades as the attraction is gone for new investors. Rinse and repeat.

That's a nice increase for O. 

Interested to see what the spinoff ONL plays with its first declaration. It's taken a hit following the spinoff, might be worth a look as a speculative buy.
