KCAP
You buying more or just wondering why the fall?
Obviously somebody is selling or shorting, but any reason?

KCAP is having accounting troubles (Their accountant doesn't like how they value some of their investments apparantly http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1372807/000114420409066325/v169934_ex99-2.htm). Consider that relatively small writedowns result in violating the 2:1 leverage maximum this is a significant problem.

I would be buying if it gets hit down to 4 and especially at $3. Book value is $11 so Mr Market seems to recognize that it is probably worth less than book value.

I think it is worth more than $4.73 but given the uncertainty surrounding it I don't see the upside catalyst in the near term.
