The best is saved for last

Today we received both ordinary and special dividends regarding Fidus Investment Corporation Common Stock (FDUS). The world's most perfect husband bought a small number of shares in British American Tobacco Industries, p.l.c. Common Stock ADR (BTI) for the money he received for (FDUS) dividend.

We chose to wait to invest the money in the other endowment insurances as there should be plenty more dividends within the next few days. Among others, we will receive dividends from (ARCC), (MAIN) and (TSLX).

We will not reach the same total amount as the March 2024 dividends for several reasons, including the fact that Hercules Capital, Inc. Common Stock (HTGC) is not regular in its distribution plan. Usually the companies are consistent in their plan but (HTGC) distributes during March, May and November. Exactly how much lower the dividends will be in June compared to March cannot be determined due to the unusually large fluctuations in the exchange rate. Anything lower than 7% is good.
