Four pictures help tell the story as to why Cindie and I own 3,330 shares of MAIN. This puts MAIN in our TOP FIVE investments. In fact, it is number four at present. Only VYM, ABBV, and AVGO are larger by total current value.

Some of the images are extracted from MAIN’s 2024 Q4 report. Notice the income that MAIN pays and the diversification by industry and geography. MAIN is shown in the lower left corner of our April Investment Report.
