abrdn World Healthcare Fund ("THW")The above-noted abrdn U.S. Closed-End Funds (the "Funds" or individually the "Fund"), today announced that the Funds will pay the distributions noted in the chart above on June 30, 2026 to all shareholders of record as of June 23, 2026 (ex-dividend date June 23, 2026).Each Fund has adopted a distribution policy to provide investors with a stable distribution out of current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital in reliance on an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.Under applicable U.S. tax rules, the amount and character of distributable income for each Fund's fiscal year can be finally determined only as of the end of the Fund's fiscal year. However, under Section 19 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") and related rules, the Funds may be required to indicate to shareholders the estimated source of certain distributions to shareholders.The following tables set forth the estimated amounts of the sources of the distributions for purposes of Section 19 of the 1940 Act and the rules adopted thereunder. The tables have been computed based on generally accepted accounting principles. The tables include estimated amounts and percentages for the current distributions to be paid as well as for the cumulative distributions paid relating to fiscal year to date, from the following sources: net investment income; net realized short-term capital gains; net realized long-term capital gains; and return of capital. The estimated compositions of the distributions may vary because the estimated composition may be impacted by future income, expenses and realized gains and losses on securities and currencies.The Funds' estimated sources of the current distributions to be paid and for its current fiscal year to date are as follows:Estimated Amounts of Current Distribution per ShareFundDistribution AmountNet Investment IncomeNet Realized Short-Term Gains*Net Realized Long-Term GainsReturn of CapitalASGI$0.2300$0.01848 %$0.043719 %$0.167973 %--THQ$0.1800--$0.064836 %$0.082846 %$0.032418 %THW$0.1167--$0.059551 %$0.057249 %--Estimated Amounts of Fiscal Year to Date Cumulative Distributions per ShareFundFiscal Year** to Date Distribution AmountNet Investment IncomeNet Realized Short-Term Gains*Net Realized Long-Term GainsReturn of CapitalASGI$1.9800$0.15848 %$0.376219 %$1.445473 %--THQ$1.6200--$0.583236 %$0.745246 %$0.291618 %THW$1.0503--$0.535751 %$0.514649 %--* includes currency gains
** ASGI, THQ, THW have a 9/30 fiscal year end. Where the estimated amounts above show a portion of the distribution to be a "Return of Capital," it means that Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all the money that you invested in a Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with "yield" or "income."The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this notice are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The final determination of the source of all distributions for the current year will only be made after year-end. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to change based on tax regulations. After the end of each calendar year, a Form 1099-DIV will be sent to shareholders for the prior calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.The following table provides the Funds' total return performance based on net asset value (NAV) over various time periods compared to the Funds' annualized and cumulative distribution rates.Fund Performance and Distribution Rate InformationFundAverage Annual Total Return on NAV for the 5 Year Period Ending 5/31/2026¹Current Fiscal Period's Annualized Distribution Rate on NAV²Cumulative Total Return on NAV¹Cumulative Distribution Rate on NAV²ASGI9.32 %11.98 %14.40 %7.85 %THQ3.28 %12.13 %7.65 %8.09 %THW7.64 %10.94 %8.54 %7.29 %1 Return data is net of all fund expenses and fees and assumes the reinvestment of all distributions reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan.
2 Based on the Fund's NAV as of May 30, 2026.Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund's investment performance from the amount of the Fund's current distributions or from the terms of the distribution policy (the "Distribution Policy").The value at which a closed-end fund stock may trade on a public exchange is a function of external market factors that are not at the control of the Fund's Board or Investment Advisor. Closed-end Fund shares may therefore trade at a premium or a discount to net asset value at any given time. Shareholders should be aware that a fund's premium to net asset value may not be sustainable and a fund's discount to net asset value can widen as well as narrow. Shareholders of a fund trading at a premium who participate in that fund's dividend reinvestment plan should note the reinvestment of distributions may occur at a premium to net asset value. While NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund's investment performance, it does not measure the value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund. The value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund's market price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund's shares in the open market.Pursuant to an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Funds may distribute any long-term capital gains more frequently than the limits provided in Section 19(b) under the 1940 Act and Rule 19b-1 thereunder. Therefore, distributions paid by the Funds during the year may include net income, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains and/or a return of capital. Net income dividends and short-term capital gain dividends, while generally taxable at ordinary income rates, may be eligible, to the extent of qualified dividend income earned by the Funds, to be taxed at a lower rate not to exceed the maximum rate applicable to your long-term capital gains. Distributions made in any calendar year in excess of investment in company taxable income and net capital gain are treated as taxable ordinary dividends to the extent of undistributed earnings and profits, and then as a return of capital that reduces the adjusted basis in the shares held. To the extent return of capital distributions exceed the adjusted basis in the shares held, capital gain is recognized with a holding period based on the period the shares have been held at the date such amount is received.The payment of distributions in accordance with the Distribution Policy may result in a decrease in the Fund's net assets. A decrease in the Fund's net assets may cause an increase in the Fund's annual operating expense ratio and a decrease in the Fund's market price per share to the extent the market price correlates closely to the Fund's net asset value per share. The Distribution Policy may also negatively affect the Fund's investment activities to the extent that the Fund is required to hold larger cash positions than it typically would hold or to the extent that the Fund must liquidate securities that it would not have sold, for the purpose of paying the distribution. Each Fund's Board has the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Distribution Policy at any time.The amendment, suspension or termination of the Distribution Policy may affect the Fund's market price per share. Investors should consult their tax advisor regarding federal, state, and local tax considerations that may be applicable in their particular circumstances.Circular 230 disclosure: To ensure compliance with requirements imposed by the U.S. Treasury, we inform you that any U.S. tax advice contained in this communication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein.In the United States, Aberdeen Investments refers to the following affiliated, registered investment advisers: abrdn Inc., abrdn Investments Limited, and abrdn Asia Limited.Closed-end funds are traded on the secondary market through one of the stock exchanges. A Fund's investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares may be worth more or less than the original cost. Shares of closed-end funds may trade above (a premium) or below (a discount) the net asset value (NAV) of the fund's portfolio. There is no assurance that a Fund will achieve its investment objective. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Therefore, distributions paid by the Funds during the year may include net income, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains and/or a return of capital. Net income dividends and short-term capital gain dividends, while generally taxable at ordinary income rates, may be eligible, to the extent of qualified dividend income earned by the Funds, to be taxed at a lower rate not to exceed the maximum rate applicable to your long-term capital gains. Distributions made in any calendar year in excess of investment in company taxable income and net capital gain are treated as taxable ordinary dividends to the extent of undistributed earnings and profits, and then as a return of capital that reduces the adjusted basis in the shares held. To the extent return of capital distributions exceed the adjusted basis in the shares held, capital gain is recognized with a holding period based on the period the shares have been held at the date such amount is received.The payment of distributions in accordance with the Distribution Policy may result in a decrease in the Fund's net assets. A decrease in the Fund's net assets may cause an increase in the Fund's annual operating expense ratio and a decrease in the Fund's market price per share to the extent the market price correlates closely to the Fund's net asset value per share. The Distribution Policy may also negatively affect the Fund's investment activities to the extent that the Fund is required to hold larger cash positions than it typically would hold or to the extent that the Fund must liquidate securities that it would not have sold, for the purpose of paying the distribution. Each Fund's Board has the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Distribution Policy at any time. The amendment, suspension or termination of the Distribution Policy may affect the Fund's market price per share. Investors should consult their tax advisor regarding federal, state, and local tax considerations that may be applicable in their particular circumstances.Circular 230 disclosure:  To ensure compliance with requirements imposed by the U.S. Treasury, we inform you that any U.S. tax advice contained in this communication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein.Aberdeen Investments Global is the trade name of Aberdeen's investments business, herein referred to as "Aberdeen Investments" or "Aberdeen".

abrdn World Healthcare Fund ("THW")The above-noted abrdn U.S. Closed-End Funds (the "Funds" or individually the "Fund"), today announced that the Funds will pay the distributions noted in the chart above on April 30, 2026 to all shareholders of record as of April 22, 2026 (ex-dividend date April 22, 2026).Each Fund has adopted a distribution policy to provide investors with a stable distribution out of current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital in reliance on an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.Under applicable U.S. tax rules, the amount and character of distributable income for each Fund's fiscal year can be finally determined only as of the end of the Fund's fiscal year. However, under Section 19 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") and related rules, the Funds may be required to indicate to shareholders the estimated source of certain distributions to shareholders.The following tables set forth the estimated amounts of the sources of the distributions for purposes of Section 19 of the 1940 Act and the rules adopted thereunder. The tables have been computed based on generally accepted accounting principles.  The tables include estimated amounts and percentages for the current distributions to be paid as well as for the cumulative distributions paid relating to fiscal year to date, from the following sources: net investment income; net realized short-term capital gains; net realized long-term capital gains; and return of capital. The estimated compositions of the distributions may vary because the estimated composition may be impacted by future income, expenses and realized gains and losses on securities and currencies.The Funds' estimated sources of the current distributions to be paid and for its current fiscal year to date are as follows:Estimated Amounts of Current Distribution per ShareFundDistribution

** ASGI, THQ, THW have a 9/30 fiscal year end. Where the estimated amounts above show a portion of the distribution to be a "Return of Capital," it means that Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all the money that you invested in a Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with "yield" or "income."The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this notice are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The final determination of the source of all distributions for the current year will only be made after year-end. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to change based on tax regulations. After the end of each calendar year, a Form 1099-DIV will be sent to shareholders for the prior calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.The following table provides the Funds' total return performance based on net asset value (NAV) over various time periods compared to the Funds' annualized and cumulative distribution rates.Fund Performance and Distribution Rate InformationFundAverage Annual

2 Based on the Fund's NAV as of March 31, 2026.Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund's investment performance from the amount of the Fund's current distributions or from the terms of the distribution policy (the "Distribution Policy").The value at which a closed-end fund stock may trade on a public exchange is a function of external market factors that are not at the control of the Fund's Board or Investment Advisor. Closed-end Fund shares may therefore trade at a premium or a discount to net asset value at any given time. Shareholders should be aware that a fund's premium to net asset value may not be sustainable and a fund's discount to net asset value can widen as well as narrow. Shareholders of a fund trading at a premium who participate in that fund's dividend reinvestment plan should note the reinvestment of distributions may occur at a premium to net asset value.  While NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund's investment performance, it does not measure the value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund.

After the end of each calendar year, a Form 1099-DIV will be sent to shareholders for the prior calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.The following table provides the Funds' total return performance based on net asset value (NAV) over various time periods compared to the Funds' annualized and cumulative distribution rates.Fund Performance and Distribution Rate InformationFundAverage Annual Total Return on NAV for the 5 Year Period Ending 2/28/2026¹Current Fiscal Period's Annualized Distribution Rate on NAV²Cumulative Total Return on NAV¹Cumulative Distribution Rate on NAV²ASGI12.42 %11.10 %16.68 %4.52 %THQ5.64 %11.47 %10.41 %4.78 %1 Return data is net of all fund expenses and fees and assumes the reinvestment of all distributions reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan.
2 Based on the Fund's NAV as of February 28, 2026.Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund's investment performance from the amount of the Fund's current distributions or from the terms of the distribution policy (the "Distribution Policy").The value at which a closed-end fund stock may trade on a public exchange is a function of external market factors that are not at the control of the Fund's Board or Investment Advisor. Closed-end Fund shares may therefore trade at a premium or a discount to net asset value at any given time. Shareholders should be aware that a fund's premium to net asset value may not be sustainable and a fund's discount to net asset value can widen as well as narrow. Shareholders of a fund trading at a premium who participate in that fund's dividend reinvestment plan should note the reinvestment of distributions may occur at a premium to net asset value.  While NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund's investment performance, it does not measure the value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund. The value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund's market price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund's shares in the open market.Pursuant to an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Funds may distribute any long-term capital gains more frequently than the limits provided in Section 19(b) under the 1940 Act and Rule 19b-1 thereunder. Therefore, distributions paid by the Funds during the year may include net income, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains and/or a return of capital. Net income dividends and short-term capital gain dividends, while generally taxable at ordinary income rates, may be eligible, to the extent of qualified dividend income earned by the Funds, to be taxed at a lower rate not to exceed the maximum rate applicable to your long-term capital gains. Distributions made in any calendar year in excess of investment in company taxable income and net capital gain are treated as taxable ordinary dividends to the extent of undistributed earnings and profits, and then as a return of capital that reduces the adjusted basis in the shares held. To the extent return of capital distributions exceed the adjusted basis in the shares held, capital gain is recognized with a holding period based on the period the shares have been held at the date such amount is received.The payment of distributions in accordance with the Distribution Policy may result in a decrease in the Fund's net assets. A decrease in the Fund's net assets may cause an increase in the Fund's annual operating expense ratio and a decrease in the Fund's market price per share to the extent the market price correlates closely to the Fund's net asset value per share. The Distribution Policy may also negatively affect the Fund's investment activities to the extent that the Fund is required to hold larger cash positions than it typically would hold or to the extent that the Fund must liquidate securities that it would not have sold, for the purpose of paying the distribution. Each Fund's Board has the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Distribution Policy at any time.The amendment, suspension or termination of the Distribution Policy may affect the Fund's market price per share. Investors should consult their tax advisor regarding federal, state, and local tax considerations that may be applicable in their particular circumstances.Circular 230 disclosure:  To ensure compliance with requirements imposed by the U.S. Treasury, we inform you that any U.S. tax advice contained in this communication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein.In the United States, Aberdeen Investments refers to the following affiliated, registered investment advisers: abrdn Inc., abrdn Investments Limited, and abrdn Asia Limited.Closed-end funds are traded on the secondary market through one of the stock exchanges.

These dates apply to the Funds listed below with the exception of the abrdn Healthcare Investors (HQH), the abrdn Life Sciences Investors (HQL), the abrdn Australia Equity Fund, Inc.

(IAF) and the India Fund, Inc. (IFN), this stock distribution will automatically be paid in newly issued shares of the Fund unless otherwise instructed by the shareholder. Shares of common stock will be issued at the lower of the net asset value ("NAV") per share or the market price per share with a floor for the NAV of not less than 95% of the market price. The valuation date for this stock distribution is March 18, 2026. Fractional shares will generally be settled in cash, except for registered shareholders with book entry accounts at Computershare Investor Services who will have whole and fractional shares added to their account.Shareholders may request to be paid their quarterly distributions in cash instead of shares of common stock by providing advance notice to the bank, brokerage or nominee who holds their shares if the shares are in "street name," or by filling out in advance an election card received from Computershare Investor Services if the shares are in registered form. To receive the quarterly distribution payable in March 2026 in cash instead of shares of common stock, the bank, brokerage or nominee who holds the shares must advise the Depository Trust Company as to the full and fractional shares for which they want the distribution paid in cash by March 17, 2026, and written notification for the election of cash by registered shareholders must be received by Computershare Investor Services prior to March 17, 2026.Each Fund has adopted a distribution policy to provide investors with a stable distribution out of current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital in reliance on an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.Under applicable U.S. tax rules, the amount and character of distributable income for each Fund's fiscal year can be finally determined only as of the end of the Fund's fiscal year. However, under Section 19 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") and related rules, the Funds may be required to indicate to shareholders the estimated source of certain distributions to shareholders.The following tables set forth the estimated amounts of the sources of the distributions for purposes of Section 19 of the 1940 Act and the rules adopted thereunder. The tables have been computed based on generally accepted accounting principles. The tables include estimated amounts and percentages for the current distributions to be paid as well as for the cumulative distributions paid relating to fiscal year to date, from the following sources: net investment income; net realized short-term capital gains; net realized long-term capital gains; and return of capital. The estimated compositions of the distributions may vary because the estimated composition may be impacted by future income, expenses and realized gains and losses on securities and currencies.The Funds' estimated sources of the current distributions to be paid and for its current fiscal year to date are as follows:Estimated Amounts of Current Distribution per ShareFundDistribution

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all the money that you invested in a Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with "yield" or "income."The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this notice are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes.

Remember to "spread the wealth" or "don't put all of your eggs in one basket." I try to never (never say never) buy more that one fund out of the same fund family, unless I check their individual characteristics to make sure they're not the same type of investments.

BTW, I just looked at AOD's B/A, and you're right, it could open down 20 - 30 cents. It has dropped below 4 before, and re-bounded. I think the "fiscal cliff" deal left investors feeling better about the tax on dividends, so they took the risk of high dividend funds. 6.7% doesn't look as good as 16.7%.

"Fund [AOD} changed its name from Alpine Global Premier Properties Fund to Aberdeen Global Premier Properties Fund effective May 7, 2018 and continues to trade on the NYSE under the symbol "AWP".

Aberdeen Total Dynamic Dividend Fund (NYSE: AOD) (the "Fund"), a closed-end fund, today announced that it paid on May 31, 2018, a distribution of US$0.0575 per share to all shareholders of record as of May 23, 2018.

This Morningstar video about Dividend Capture Funds is excellent. The funds look shady to me... and to the commentator in the video. I think it's just a gimmick to justify fat fees. I'm quite familiar with two ETFs that CLAIM to use some form of dividend capture (Alpine's AOD and AGD) and both have usually lagged the S&P 500 by a wide margin.

http://www.morningstar.com/videos/356587/avoid-the-dividend-illusion.html

No one have anything to say about the recent upsurge in price?
Anyone buying or interested in this stock? I see the posts from 2014 and 2106...maybe things have changed for the stock?

Thanks Bar1080

AOD went public in 2007 at $20 a share as I recall. It did a reverse split recently. So capital losses have far exceeded the fat divs paid out. It's a sucker bet that far underperformed a simple S&P500 index fund.

By all means, do a LOT of research into ANY high investment. GL!

Thanks for your insight, again I haven't done any DD just came across this chart and saw it go side ways for along period of time while paying great dividends. Then it took a dive along with the rest of the market and oil which should be expected. Thought this might be good entry point.

AOD uses a flashy payout to target unsophisticated retirees who will never read the complex financials. I've laid it all out in my long series of posts on this board that you can skim in an hour.

True but this might be the bottom. Coin flip I guess

Read my old AOD posts going back a few years which were right on the mark. AOD's garbage. And monthly income is mostly a gimmick. Investors who "reached for income" in the past few years have been destroyed.

Just about every high yield asset class has severely lagged the broad averages... such as the S&P 500. Compare with mREITs and most oils. Nothing safe pays over about 4%.

Looking for monthly income and came across this ticker .

Still garbage. What do you want to know?

Anyone here?

Reverse split for AOD and AGD.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/alpine-total-dynamic-dividend-fund-134500608.html

Stability in a soaring market is no virtue. Heck it's not even stable as this 12-month comparison to the S&P 500 shows:

In my port and acquiring more...under $5 and healthy monthly div return. PPS doesn't move much I like stability.

Considering it fell steadily from 20 to 4, and it's holding is a good sign.... No......????????

How is "holding at $4" good news when the market is hitting record highs?

Those funds I bought years ago have all risen many fold, all pay dividends, they just haven't risen as much as my benchmark, the S&P 500. If I had losses in them I'd sell to offset income or cap gains.

Hey stocks, I see you had to run me down at AOD... Yep, I'm still there, picked up some 4's last week Dad's pounding his chest like he may even gotten some cheaper... I'm just avoiding your buddy.... Can't see wasting any time or energy on him. You know I like dividend investing, and AOD is around 8% now. It has gone down quite a bit, but seems to have FINALLY bottomed out. The fund has a new management team, and just started a buy-back program, so I'm going to hang with them, even though a few other posters are disappointed. I've been dollar cost averaging and using the DRIP, so I'm in pretty good shape with AOD.

hey keys.. how you doing?? hope all is well.. you still in our other stock??

Glad to hear all your investments are 100% winners. My overall portfolio is doing fine, but I'm still holding a few REITs that tanked a few years ago. All but one started paying dividends again, but I'm too stubborn to sell the losers. Maybe if I hold them 25 years like you have, I will make a penny or two with them.

Johnsyn's post confirms what we suspected about the PPS holding $4

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=85085120

I'm very familiar with the Dexter deal. It was a bad loser for BRK but mostly because the seller took it all in BRK stock, not cash. Brilliant seller!

I can honestly say 100% of my current investments have been "winners." Not hard to say when the stock market is at record high and when I sell my very rare losers for tax losses (haven't done that since two bank stocks several years ago).

It's a matter of definition, tho. I have several old mutual funds. Owned them for about 25 years. Of course I've made money in them over such a long period. But not one of them has kept up with my performance benchmark, the S&P500 index.

Luckily I saw that lag happening almost immediately after I bought them. My next fund purchase was the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index fund... my first Index fund. Year after year, Quarter after Quarter that index fund beat my other four funds. It also beat the small amount of money I put in individual stocks.

Over the years I've owned three CEF's: TY, ADX and one that was liquidated at great profit to me about 30 years ago.

I wouldn't touch any CEF not selling at a discount to NAV. I'm not sure I'd buy an Alpine fund, like AOD or AGD, at any price! Alpine is garbage.

Good article, but they left out Pier One and a few others. Even Mr. Buffett forgets rule #1 occasionally, but there is no doubt he's a great investor. From $18 to $150,000 PPS is amazing. Even the B shares are hitting a new high this morning. (Which I own 12 shares around $42) I probably won't live long enough to see those hit $150,000..

I'm sure I heard him say that "60%" quote in an interview with Maria Bartiromo a few years ago. If I misquoted him, his point was not every single one of your investments will be winners, just make sure most of them are.

I agree, no way Buffett would own AOD. And if he did, he would have been out a long time ago!

Doubt Buffett ever said: "60% of your investments will be losers, the trick is to make a lot of money on the other 40%"

That sounds like something penny pumpers say to justify all the pump and dumps that go to zero. I'd guess that 90+% of Buffett's investments have ranged from mediocre to fabulous investments.

Buffett has had a few dogs in 50 years, of course. But very few. Perhaps Buffett's worst investment was his 1993 purchase of shoe company, Dexter. And that was a pretty small acquisition.

Trust me, Buffett wouldn't have any interest in AOD.

Got my itsy bitsy dividend today. Re-started the DRIP. Surprised it's still hanging around 4, but I'm still happily holding, haven't sold a single share in 5 years!

Alpine Total Dynamic Dividend Fund Announces a New Share Repurchase Plan

Alpine Total Dynamic Dividend Fund (NYSE: AOD) (the “Fund”) today announced that its Board of Trustees (the “Board”), as part of an ongoing evaluation of strategic options focusing on enhancing shareholder value, has authorized a share repurchase plan (the “Repurchase Plan”). Under the Repurchase Plan the Fund may purchase, in the open market, its outstanding common shares. The amount and timing of repurchases will be at the discretion of the Fund’s investment adviser, Alpine Woods Capital Investors, LLC (the “Adviser”), and subject to market conditions and investment considerations.

The decision to authorize the Repurchase Plan reflects the Board’s belief that a period of time has passed since the reduction in the Fund’s distribution level and that the market continues to undervalue the Fund’s shares relative to its NAV (which was $4.57 as of February 26, 2013). In reaching its decision, the Board considered that the discount to NAV at which Fund shares have recently traded and the Fund’s approximate 8.24% market price yield (on a market price of $3.93 as of February 26, 2013), in combination with what the Adviser believes to be the prospective global growth potential, diminished excess pessimism and gradual improvement of the macro economic situation, make acquiring Fund shares under the Repurchase Plan an attractive opportunity for the Fund.

The Repurchase Plan allows the Fund to acquire shares in the open market at a discount to NAV, which benefits remaining shareholders by increasing the NAV per share. The Board remains focused on actions that may increase value for long-term Fund shareholders.

The Fund’s repurchase activity will be disclosed in its shareholder report for the relevant fiscal period. There is no assurance that the Fund will repurchase shares at any specific discount levels or in any specific amounts. There is also no assurance that the market price of the Fund’s shares, either absolute or relative to NAV, will increase as a result of any share repurchases, or that the Repurchase Plan will enhance shareholder value over the long-term. The Board will continue to monitor the Repurchase Plan, which can be terminated at any time.

Sister fund, AGD, getting killed recently. Its former premium heading to a deep discount. AOD isn't doing much better.

Another Warren Buffett lesson: Don't invest in tech! I was fortunate not to get caught up in the tech wreck of 2000, thanks to that lesson. But some folks made a ton of money before that, or should I say tons!

SPY got awful scary 08-09 but recoverd very well, AOD hasn't. But will it..??? I'm sure the distribution cut is because of the new investment management team.

I like the "insane" dividend investing...

The PPS has held up better than I anticipated? I still see this falling in the mid to low 3's over the next few months?

Actually the overwhelming percentage of tech stocks will be losers. Probably 90%. Many will go to zero. But the rare good ones usually make up for many bad ones. And I'm talking about NASDAQ/NYSE, not the worthless OTCBB or Pink.

Few investors understand that tech stocks are actually terrible investments. Except for the very, very rare winner.

Your "pretty good" track record with CEFs is mostly because that category is red hot right now because people are chasing yields to "an insane" degree. In the same way, my muni bonds have done fabulously over the past decades. But I know many are garbage.

I keep looking at CEFs and find almost none that beat the S&P 500. AOD is one of the very worst. Compare it with SPY over virtually any time period.

bar1080,
I guess you didn't notice the wink and smile after my board name comment? I know you can't do anything about the name of the CEF. I agree with you, it's a distribution, not a dividend. They've been distributing my own money back to me for a while, and I still don't have any complaints with AOD. Doug Albo is right by saying "the difference can mean a lot of money for investors in these high yielding funds over the long run" And I have bought risky high dividend paying ETF's a premium. Some good, some bad.

Another Warren Buffett lesson: "60% of your investments will be losers, the trick is to make a lot of money on the other 40%"

Tomorrow is the last paydate for the .055 distribution. We may see a sell off after folks get their extra shares. Although, it's usually a few day into the next month before it's actually paid. There has been an exceptional amount of volume lately, and it's still holding around 4. I did ask my broker to re-instate my DRIP plan with AOD, so I'll be getting some cheap shares now!

BTW, an excellent premium CEF that has been very stable over the years is PHK.

"Equity CEFs: The Insanity Of CEF Investors"

Doug Albo again attacks AOD, AGD and overpriced CEFs in general.

"I don't know what it's going to take to get investors to finally figure out which equity based closed-end funds (CEFs) are attractive and which ones are not, but the difference can mean a lot of money for investors in these high yielding funds over the long run...."

Referring to the word "Dividend" in the board title? That is the name of the security. So I can't do much about the title. There are plenty of funds with "Growth" in the name that go years without "growing".

Here's what Alpine says: "These monthly distributions may consist of net investment income, net realized capital gains and / or a return of capital."

There have been a number of very cerebral university journal articles written about the quirkiness of CEFs.

For example: http://www.economics.harvard.edu/faculty/shleifer/files/closed_end_mut_funds.pdf

Why do some bad CEFs sell at premiums to NAV? Why do some good ones sell at discounts to NAV? Some very brainy people don't know.

What is known: over a very long period the market price and the underlying economic value tend to converge. I wouldn't touch any CEF selling at a premium.

Since you are the moderator, perhaps you should change the name of the board..

Up over 2% today, not too shabby considering the distribution cut!
BTW, it's a distribution, not a dividend.

Well if AAPL is still their major holding, we'll probably see another drop in price, since AAPL lost $57 after hours yesterday. We expected the sell off in AOD Tuesday with the distribution announcement, and it may have even dropped further if it wasn't the ex-dividend day. The buyers yesterday actually surprised me. I'm in a wait and see mode, not running yet! Now that the amount I've been receiving will be cut in half next month, I'll start the DRIP plan again with AOD!
