Sooner or latter this will break out.been in sometime now. Glty
someone is working very diligently to make sure this doesn't close above 6.54... sell trades right at the close last 2 days to push it back down...
This looks like it's going to test 7.90 resistance again.
What are we looking for here a 21 cent divi or am I wrong. A little late on the news.tia
.95 WTFREAK ANYONE KNOW HOW MANY SHARES WENT OFF UNDER A DOLAR
You called that,got to pick up more next week. glty
Anyone still around here? Looking forward to a small run leading up to earnings... no reason to believe earnings will disappoint.. should get back to the 9s hopefully.
Don't have a lot of shares but got in this week.let's see what happens like to add more if things improve. long BKCC.
Solid quarterly results and stable dividend again. Analyst upgrade today as well.
Looking good.
Pretty decent entry point at this level today.
I think the masses have agreed with that today, just not heavily, dipping their toes back in, hoping to not get scalded.
I see you find Seeking Alpha a good source-I like market currents and don't pay too much attention to the armchair investor articles-such as this author is strickly a long-term investor. Funny he only invests in the one REIT.
A story about mREIT fears being overdone:
http://seekingalpha.com/article/291551-mreit-concerns-are-overblown-good-buying-opportunity?source=yahoo
Here's another mention on it thru SEEKING ALPHA-
Friday, September 2, 4:55 PM Mortgage REITs American Capital Agency (AGNC), Hatteras Financial (HTS), and Capstone Mortgage (CMO) have moved lower since the SEC announced on Wednesday it will seek comment on removing tax and leverage exemptions. Citi is doubtful the SEC will remove them, but cautions dividends would plunge if they do.
au contrair- the REITs took a royal beating since the announcement.
1) BKCC isn't a REIT. Its a BDC.
2) The SEC's request will have zero impact on the mREIT industry even if they regulate them as investment companies.
yep, too bad the SEC announcement about revamping a 1940 rule spooked everyone away from REITs again
10 days to ex-div. Kind of a freebie IMO.
glad you're happy with them and that they're doing better. Had them and when bad comments kept driving it down, was losing my butt and got out at loss.
BKCC didn't do a good job in 2010 or Q1 compared to their peers. They were too conservative and it effected their growth. However, the turned it up as was evident in their Q2 results.
The 12+% yield is a tasty treat.... especially when the NAV approaches $10 bucks now.
Management's style works will in choppy waters like today. They have a very balanced portfolio and they will steer through nicely. I really like BDCs in this climate. When banks aren't lending... BDC print money from leveraged loans.
Perhaps it was the ETNs that hold it, that was my thought problem:

here's first article that deals with negative recovery (You could be very right in the no expiration/withdrawal)

What expiration date? BDCs do not have expiration dates. Please post a link of the "expiration" you are referring to...
The company announced it will continue to buy back shares as well.... I think that you're wrong here.
Actually, I don't think it will recover too much, it does have an expiration date, and like some other trusts I've seen with gigantic yields, once it's announced, it is slow death. If you own presently and have been taking divies, all is well.
BKCC is going to recover quickly from here. BKCC's conservtive style makes BKCC a good stock to own in this environment. If the banks tighten, BDC's still have money to put to work. BKCC has a low risk portfolio and offers an attractive yield to investors.
ex-dividend date of 6/15 coming up, so stock should climb despite the market problems. Nice to see you here, Techmaster, go YNDX and BKCC
Added shares today below $10.30. Dividend payment of 32 cents to shareholders of record on March 18 and a current NAV valuation of $9.62 makes share accumulation here pretty attractive. Possible dividend reduction later on is possible, but the company has a lot of dry powder to deploy right now. jmo

Regulation FD Disclosure
ITEM 7.01. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
On August 13, 2010, BlackRock Kelso Capital Corporation (the "Company") posted to its website an August 2010 investor presentation.
The presentation is available at
http://blackrockkelso.com/InvestorRelations/Presentations/index.htm.
The information disclosed under this Item 7.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made under the Securities Act of 1933, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Should be an interesting conference call coming up. I'd like to learn whats going to happen to the 2009 dividend holdover and when it will be distributed. $.42 cents is meaningful if its pushed out as a special dividend.
I'm expecting a nice NAV bump as well.
BKCC to report earnings ahead of the bell tomorrow. Should be a good quarterly result given the strong performance from other BDC's this quarter.
I added to my position today ahead of tomorrow's earning announcement.
