AFN is one of hte few ivestment funds witha portfolio that will shine once the sub prime nightmare is gone. Risky? We will find out September 4th is my understanding. Major buy back and insider buying. Current dividend 21%

Update 09/07:

The chat rooms have been running with BUY vs Bankrupt. A cut in the dividend is possible too .25 this quarter or next. In any case AFN still looks strong. This is a LT hold
