Neutral Impact 3 of 5 shareholder Written later

H&Q Healthcare Investors, a closed-end fund listed on the NYSE as HQH, said its Board of Trustees renewed its share repurchase program. The renewal lets the fund buy back up to 12% of its outstanding common shares in the open market for a one-year period ending July 10, 2014, replacing the current program that ends July 10, 2013. The Board said the goal is to reduce the discount between the share price and net asset value per share, though the filing gives no assurance of any specific repurchase amount or discount level.
