It seems of late that virtually any security with a decent coupon or high dividend is being bought. Everything for plain vanilla corporate bonds (LQD is peakind, for example), to agency RMBS, to MLPs, to mortgage REITs is being hoovered up regardless of risk or value. Even some of my random CEFs that have traded at big discounts to NAV (BKT, etc.) are catching a bid. I presume that treasury and CD yields of bupkis are pressing people to search out yield, yet the public seems to remain terrified of even cheap, well run equities with strong balance sheets.
Thoughts? I am not seeing much in the way of attractive yield opportunities any more. I will buy cheap stocks to a certain point, but otherwise I guess I will just accumulate cash/CDs.
