    Not for me they haven't ;-)

    They have been my second best performer in the last 12 months behind SCF only - that's looking at pure 'gains' only.

    Whilst making great gains, I have also been yielding an average of about 26% pa while holding them.

    I'm fairly happy with that so far....

    26% alone tells you what the market thinks of the risk?

    I can remember Skellerup bonds giving investors 35% pa return - then it blew up.

    That's right - but no matter what, I can't 'lose' on them over 12 months now, since I have 10,000 units remaining held, and I am already cash positive on them.

    Any real analysis that implies they will fall over would be interesting to go through.

    I am sure you will find Chalkie's article on ALF of interest.
