Q: I'm trying to understand HPYT and what factors will influence the market price . In Dec. 23 market price was $12.83 and yield was 14% . Today it is $8.91 and yield is 20% . Am I correct in assuming as the price drops the yield will rise ? I did notice that since inception HPYT has paid .15 cents a month . Up until the recent June payment which was .13 cents. Why the decrease ?

What factors influence the market price ? Interest rates I assume . What effect will rising interest rates have on the price ? And what effect will dropping interest rates have ?

What effect will a Taco tariff policy have on the price ?

Will the " Great Big Beautiful Bill " have an effect on the price ? Going to be a substantial increase in U.S. debt .....

Will the price be influenced by Trump's rhetoric of replacing Powell ? And what effect will that be ? .....I can't imagine Mr Market will react positively to a politically motivated Fed Chair .....

Can I slot this into the fixed income portion of my portfolio or is it too volatile ?
Basically I would like to know the various factors 5i feels will influence the price/yield of this security .....

Thanks for your terrific service .....

Q: Hello, I've been holding UHN in my RRSP for a while, but the stock has taken a significant hit with a 33% loss. Given its current stagnation, I'm thinking of selling it and reallocating the funds. I have a few options in mind: I could buy a call option with a strike price of $79 expiring on Dec 27, which might give me a chance to recover some losses if the stock rebounds. Alternatively, I could sell UHN and use the proceeds to increase my stake in other healthcare stocks, such as LLY or ISRG, which I believe have more potential. Or, I could cut my losses entirely and exit the healthcare insurance sector. Which direction makes the most sense? Thanks
