Patience in investing is a virtue. If you're willing to hold on until the end of 2017 with Symphony International Holdings (OTC:SYNNF), then you could be rewarded with a 9% dividend and a 40% return on capital.
Symphony, a London-listed, closed-end investment fund, currently trades with a 40% discount to its net asset value. Its assets aim to capture the growing economic power of the middle classes in Southeast Asia, including Minor International, a Thai-listed hotels and restaurants group, real estate and healthcare. Its most recent investment is in the show rooms of the Christian Liaigre luxury furniture brand.
There is more to Symphony than just a discount. The assets have grown with the middle classes in Asia and should continue to do so. This has been rewarded with a year of steady increases in the share price and with a dividend that has grown in each of the past three years since it began paying out. This could be a valuable dividend stock.
There is also a significant margin of safety. Cash and listed securities held by Symphony cover the share price by approximately 1.15 times, with the rest of the full net asset value made up by non-listed securities and real estate. A very conservative appraisal of the value of the assets was performed in 2014, and little has changed since then.

Tuesday was down day on Wall Street, with major benchmarks losing a quarter percent or more. Market participants spent a lot of time watching the geopolitical situation, where a planned meeting between leaders of North Korea and the U.S. ran into possible hurdles. Yet there wasn't a really big response in some of the financial markets, with oil staying close to the $72-per-barrel mark and 10-year Treasury yields remaining above 3%. Some individual companies had good news that sent their shares higher, however. Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU), Eldorado Gold (NYSE:EGO), and America's Car-Mart (NASDAQ:CRMT) were among the best performers on the day. Here's why they did so well.
