Coming at you today with a new pick. So far all of our positions are holding up just fine, even after the market correction and increased volatility.
A quick glimpse in the Tao Stock Tracker will show you that we are still up on all over positions not including dividends. We also still have a wide margin from hitting our trailing stops.
Lets add to our portfolio today with a micro-cap closed ended fund that is heavy on industrial stocks.
Royce Micro-Cap Trust, Inc. is a closed-end diversified investment company whose shares of Common Stock ($RMT) are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The Fund’s investment goal is long-term capital growth, which it seeks by investing primarily in equity securities of companies that, at the time of investment, have market capitalization of $1 billion or less.
As you can see below, the stock is in a upward channel just below it’s 50-day moving average. I expect the fund to continue trading this way for some time.
If the U.S. does get a infrastructure bill passed these smaller industrial stocks could see a lot of action. They are also no doubt benefiting from the reduced corporate tax rate to 21% from 35%.
The fund has a yield of 8.5% and is also trading below its net asset value.
As a benchmark the fund more often than not beats the Russell 2000 index.
