Hi TF, Re: NRO..............

The web site is pretty useless. However, if you dig deep enough you can at least find their reports.

1) It appears they do have realized cap gains, so I guess they did do some selling.

2) Cash as a % of assets currently is teensy.

3) It would appear their share price is not down significantly more than the average REIT or REIT Fund.

But, it is down a bundle over the last 12 months.

4) Yes, it's a closed end fund.

5) It appears their payout was around $900MM last year while income was $2270MM. However, their Assets and Liabilities statement (Page 12) seems to create some more questions to be answered.
