Tomorrow Is Last Day Of Trading For DENT

AdvisorShares recently announced the closing of the AdvisorShares Dent Tactical ETF (DENT).  They decided to close the fund rather than pursue the previously planned reorganization of DENT into the AdvisorShares Meidell Tactical Advantage ETF (MATH).  The last day of trading is tomorrow – August 8, 2012.  I advise any remaining owners to dispose of their shares prior to delisting using a limit order.

Noah Hamman, CEO of AdvisorShares, said “We determined it was in the best interest of the shareholders to close DENT due to the amount of time required for the merger and its associated costs.”

DENT has been on ETF Deathwatch since May 2011 and is flagged by the ETF Field Guide for having liquidity concerns in three different measurements.
