By "number of companies" I assume you're also talking about closed-end funds. True, many use leverage, and it can enhance gains and losses in a big way.

I guess I've been so thoroughly trained by the biotech sector that I see the risks in high-yield investing as (relatively) trivial. Plus I'm planning on keeping a portfolio of between 15 and 20 of these guys, as opposed to the 5 or 6 stocks I usually keep in my biotech portfolio.

Would be interested to hear your recommendations. I am really, really interested in ex-US recommendations, if you've got any.
