Virtus Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Income Fund (EDF) Cotización

What happens to the price here when the merger takes place on the 15th?

If you had purchased the lows back in April 2020 and held them until
now, the gains between the dividends and the increase of the pps would
be about 15% or more in one year and reinvesting the dividends the percentages would be higher.
Not bad for a high dividend stock.

How long before EDF gets in step with everyone else slashing its monthly dividend. Prices look juicy

OY! the bargains being created by OPEC, COVID19 and the race for president. I cant remember the last time I saw EDF this low. Incredible!!!

wow, i had my finger on trigger for 14 as well. lol so funny how that is. guess we will have to watch it now i see no reason for dramatic drop .17 is good for a long while lets hope it doesnt drop again...

Nice mine is at 12.95 so we came real close to taking it out today! I would of rather fetched 14 the other day and was seriously contemplated it. I didn't see the drop in dividend coming so I missed the chance.

At any rate it still pays good for the current price!

---Cheers

i agree with your logic. i have stop at $12.80 just in case... ill be happy with 3 more years at .17

Been in this for 2 years now I see the range as 10 -14 were at the high end
IMO. This is the first cut since inception so If this goes another 10 years at .17 all is good.

I just don't like the Price of stock to NAV ratio not good. High dividend stocks are High risk reward. I always keep a trailing stop in place and todays trading is testing that!

still .17 for $13-$14 dollar stock, ill keep as well and watch it. in the norm the stock has traded $12 range to $14 range so just have to watch. next 3 month already announced..

i like pci

One penny I can accept that. Been thinking real hard if I want to do the lateral handoff to CLM? I don't like the NAV here compared to CLM. Might be time to switch?

For now because I still have a cushion I will stay put. The sell off today was a little over done IMHO.

Damn first cut is done

Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Income Fund (NYSE:EDF) declares $0.17/share monthly dividend, -5.6% decrease from prior dividend of $0.18.

Forward yield 15.07%

Payable Feb. 27; for shareholders of record Feb. 14; ex-div Feb. 13.

Payable March 26; for shareholders of record March 16; ex-div March 13.

Payable April 30; for shareholders of record April 20; ex-div April 17.

I see CLM lowered their dividend to .18 so now EDF seems to be in the lead with stability and return!

I am talking about Cash covered PUTs. For example I sold 3 114 dollar contracts (300) shares of CVX last week for 1.04 a contract so my account was CREDITED 312 dollars.

The contract expiration was last Friday. The contracts expired worthless so on Saturday My account was granted 100% of this credit because they expired out of the money.

If they would have expired in the money I would of had to purchase 300 shares at 114.00 and still received the credit lowering my cost basis 1.04 to 113.00 a share. Then I would get the dividend by ownership since Xdate is 2 weeks from now.

Either way I am happy. I do this with one or more stocks every week on the weeklies option chain on blue chip dividend payers!

I also sell covered calls on my holdings when appropriate increasing my dividends and lowering my cost basis. Lots of Fun and lots of extra dollars!

Puts? I may need to look into it again. I watched a few videos on options before but never pulled the trigger I guess maybe study up on it again

I hear ya! With EDF I think I am going just hold. I have it in both my IRA and regular account and like the monthly check. I lightened my load in August and running 75-80 percent cash right now. We could see a big sell off however the fact that they keep lowering interest makes me believe the Market will remain strong. There is NOWHERE else you can go to get a return so the Market is where it is at.

My new thing is to sell (short) Puts on the stocks I would own to collect dividends. Most of the time I keep the credit and treat it like a dividend. If the stock goes down I just take the assignment own the stock and collect the dividend.

So far I am making more than holding and collecting divs with a whole lot less cash in the market! Other than that I am up around 25% year to date on my 2 accounts.

Cheers

Yes still holding have a 25% cushion.
But I am getting a little anxious with market all time high but my portfolio too big to take profits not sure if I should sell all and start from scratch again during the election year pull back

Sone you still in EDF? It's been holding nice this year! Payout strong and price has increased. I am getting close to a 2 year hold so nice cushion built in now!

Cheers Mate

I think the tariff trade wars have a lot to do with the markets instability lately. Everything is bouncing around. Divy payers have to be nervous too, especially REITs with the FED raising rates yet again.

Stone harbors emerging markets dont appear to be emerging so much this Q. Hopefully things will turn positive in the coming months finalizing the year in the green.

Don't know but I have taken a heavy hit on this one not getting the warm and fuzzies that is for sure. Not a good start to a position I just opened at what I thought was the low for the year?

Ive yet to see anything that would cause this drop other than the Fed raising rates again, the Tariffs cant be doing it, or can they. The DOW is off 800 points for this weeks session, could be the MM's know something ahead of us retail mushrooms.

The latest FED raise isnt helping divy payers this Q, I think there is one more raise coming be it 2018 or early 2019. Either way as long as the dividend is maintained or forward guidance is given like the Cornerstones do, EDF is a bargain at these levels

because of the div.. people want that .18 per

EDF shares lost about 21% in the past 12 months... while the SP500TR (s&p 500 with divs included) rose about 20%. What a stinker EDF is!

On a total return basis EDF lost about 5% during that period. I believe those numbers are correct. You might check me.

So why does EDF trade at a premium and who would pay that? The answer is that CEFs often trade at inexplicable high or low levels and for long periods. That's something's that puzzled economists for decades.

What’s the total return?

Why pay a 17% premium for this perennial bowser? You can expect that to disappear in tough times. My long-held rule with CEFs: only buy at discounts.
