Certain Trusts estimate they have distributed more than the amount of earned income and net realized gains; therefore, a portion of the distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s investment in a Trust is returned to the shareholder. A return of capital does not necessarily reflect a Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income.’ When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Trust’s net asset value per share.

Section 19(a) notices for each Trust, as applicable, are available on the BlackRock website http://www.blackrock.com.

Section 19(b) Disclosure

The Trusts, acting pursuant to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) exemptive order and with the approval of each Trust’s Board of Trustees/Directors (the “Board”), each have adopted a plan, consistent with its investment objectives and policies to support a level distribution of income, capital gains and/or return of capital (the “Plan”). In accordance with the Plans, the Trusts currently distribute the following fixed amounts per share on a quarterly basis:


		Exchange Symbol					Amount Per Common Share
		BQY					$0.230000
		BQR					$0.179250
		BGR					$0.405000
		CII					$0.300000
		BDJ					$0.140000
		BOE					$0.311650
		BME					$0.429975
		BGY					$0.167850
		BCF					$0.174800
		BCX					$0.231200
		BUI					$0.362500

The fixed amounts distributed per share are subject to change at the discretion of each Trust’s Board. Under its Plan, each Trust will distribute all available investment income to its shareholders, consistent with its primary investment objectives and as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If sufficient investment income is not available on a quarterly basis, the Trusts will distribute long-term capital gains and/or return of capital to shareholders in order to maintain a level distribution. Each quarterly distribution to shareholders is expected to be at the fixed amount established by the Board, except for extraordinary distributions and potential distribution rate increases or decreases to enable the Trusts to comply with the distribution requirements imposed by the Code.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about each Trust’s investment performance from the amount of these distributions or from the terms of the Plan. Each Trust’s total return performance on net asset value is presented in its financial highlights table.

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate a Trust’s Plan without prior notice if it deems such actions to be in the best interests of the Trust or its shareholders. The suspension or termination of the Plan could have the effect of creating a trading discount (if the Trust’s stock is trading at or above net asset value) or widening an existing trading discount. The Trusts are subject to risks that could have an adverse impact on their ability to maintain level distributions. Examples of potential risks include, but are not limited to, economic downturns impacting the markets, decreased market volatility, companies suspending or decreasing corporate dividend distributions and changes in the Code. Please refer to each Trust’s prospectus for a more complete description of its risks.

Shareholder Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Markets have remained highly attuned to potential changes in U.S. monetary policy over the past year. This was markedly evident one year ago in May of 2013 when then-Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke first mentioned the possibility of reducing (or “tapering”) the central bank’s asset purchase programs — comments that were widely misinterpreted as signaling an end to the Fed’s zero-interest-rate policy. U.S. Treasury yields rose sharply following his comments, triggering a steep sell-off across fixed income markets. (Bond prices move in the opposite direction of yields.) Global equities also suffered as investors feared the implications of a potential end to a program that had greatly supported stocks. Emerging markets, which are more sensitive to changes in global liquidity, were especially hurt by the prospect of ebbing cash flows from the United States. Markets broadly rebounded in late June, however, when the Fed’s tone turned more dovish. At the same time, improving economic indicators and better corporate earnings helped extend gains through most of the summer.

Although the tone of economic and financial news was mixed last autumn, it was a surprisingly positive period for most asset classes. Early on, the Fed defied market expectations with its decision to delay tapering, but higher volatility returned in late September 2013 when the U.S. Treasury Department warned that the national debt would soon breach its statutory maximum. The ensuing political brinksmanship led to a partial government shutdown, roiling global financial markets through the first half of October. Equities and other so-called “risk assets” managed to resume their rally when politicians finally engineered a compromise to reopen the government and extend the debt ceiling.

The remainder of 2013 was a generally positive period for stock markets in the developed world, although investors continued to grapple with uncertainty about when and how much the Fed would scale back on stimulus. When the Fed ultimately announced its tapering plans in mid-December, markets reacted positively, as this action signaled the Fed’s perception of real improvement in the economy, and investors were finally released from the anxiety that had gripped them for quite some time.

The start of the new year brought a stark change in sentiment. Heightened volatility in emerging markets — driven by reduced global liquidity, severe currency weakness, high levels of debt and uneven growth — combined with mixed U.S. economic data caused global equities to weaken in January while bond markets found renewed strength from investors seeking relatively safer assets. Although these headwinds persisted, equities were back on the rise in February as investors were encouraged by a one-year extension of the U.S. debt ceiling and market-friendly comments from new Fed Chair Janet Yellen. While U.S. economic data had softened, investors were assuaged by increasing evidence that this was a temporary trend resulting from harsher-than-usual winter weather.

In the final months of the period, signs of decelerating growth in China and geopolitical tensions in Russia and Ukraine made for a bumpy ride, but markets continued their climb as investors focused on improving U.S. economic data, stronger corporate earnings and a still-dovish central bank. Within developed markets, investors shifted from growth to value stocks as the strong performance of growth stocks in 2013 had pushed valuations higher in many of these sectors. Emerging markets also benefited from this broad rotation into cheaper valuations and were further supported by an improving growth outlook for a number of developing countries.

Even though investors were gearing up for a modest shift toward tighter monetary policy from the Fed, equity markets in the developed world posted solid gains for the six- and 12-month periods ended April 30. Emerging markets, however, experienced increased volatility amid heightened risks for the asset class. Interest rate uncertainty posed a headwind for fixed income assets, and higher-quality sectors of the market performed poorly over the reporting period. Conversely, high yield bonds benefited from income-oriented investors’ search for yield in the overall low-rate environment. Short-term interest rates remained near zero, keeping yields on money market securities close to historic lows.

At BlackRock, we believe investors need to think globally, extend their scope across a broad array of asset classes and be prepared to move freely as market conditions change over time. We encourage you to talk with your financial advisor and visit www.blackrock.com for further insight about investing in today’s world.

Sincerely,

The Benefits and Risks of Option Over-Writing

In general, the goal of each of the Trusts is to provide total return through a combination of current income and realized and unrealized gains (capital appreciation). The Trusts seek to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option over-writing strategy in an effort to enhance distribution yield and total return performance. However, these objectives cannot be achieved in all market conditions.

The Trusts primarily write single stock covered call options, and may also from time to time write single stock put options. When writing (selling) a covered call option, the Trust holds an underlying equity security and enters into an option transaction which allows the counterparty to purchase the equity security at an agreed-upon price (“strike price”) within an agreed-upon time period. The Trusts receive cash premiums from the counterparties upon writing (selling) the option, which along with net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are generally available to support current or future distributions paid by the Trusts. During the option term, the counterparty will elect to exercise the option if the market value of the equity security rises above the strike price, and the Trust will be obligated to sell the equity security to the counterparty at the strike price, realizing a gain or loss. Premiums received will increase gains or reduce losses realized on the sale of the equity security. If the option remains unexercised upon its expiration, the Trusts will realize gains equal to the premiums received.

Writing covered call options entails certain risks, which include, but are not limited to, the following: an increase in the value of the underlying equity security above the strike price can result in the exercise of a written option (sale by the Trust to the counterparty) when the Trust might not otherwise have sold the security; exercise of the option by the counterparty will result in a sale below the current market value and will result in a gain or loss being realized by the Trust; and writing covered call options limits the potential appreciation that could be realized on the underlying equity security to the extent of the strike price of the option. As such, an option over-writing strategy may outperform the general equity market in flat or falling markets but underperform in rising markets.

Each Trust employs a plan to support a level distribution of income, capital gains and/or return of capital. The goal of the plan is to provide shareholders with consistent and predictable cash flows by setting distribution rates based on expected long-term returns of the Trusts. Such distributions, under certain circumstances, may exceed a Trust’s total return performance. When total distributions exceed total return performance for the period, the difference will reduce the Trust’s total assets and net asset value per share (“NAV”) and, therefore, could have the effect of increasing the Trust’s expense ratio and reducing the amount of assets the Trust has available for long term investment. In order to make these distributions, a Trust may have to sell portfolio securities at less than opportune times.

The final tax characterization of distributions is determined after the fiscal year and is reported in the Trust’s annual report to shareholders. Distributions will be characterized as ordinary income, capital gains and/or return of capital. The Trust’s taxable net investment income or net realized capital gains (“taxable income”) may not be sufficient to support the level of distributions paid. To the extent that distributions exceed the Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess may be treated as a non-taxable return of capital. Distributions that exceed a Trust’s taxable income but do not exceed the Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, may be classified as ordinary income which are taxable to shareholders. Such distributions are reported as distributions in excess of net investment income.

A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect a Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income.’ A return of capital is a return of a portion of an investor’s original investment. A return of capital is not taxable, but it reduces a shareholder’s tax basis in his or her shares, thus reducing any loss or increasing any gain on a subsequent disposition by the shareholder of his or her shares. It is possible that a substantial portion of the distributions paid during a calendar year may ultimately be classified as return of capital or as distributions in excess of net investment income for income tax purposes when the final determination of the source and character of the distributions is made.

To illustrate these concepts, assume the following: (1) a common stock purchased at and currently trading at $37.15 per share; (2) a three-month call option is written by a Trust with a strike price of $40 (i.e., 7.7% higher than the current market price); and (3) the Trust receives $2.45, or 6.6% of the common stock’s value, as a premium. If the stock price remains unchanged, the option will expire and there would be a 6.6% return for the three-month period. If the stock were to decline in price by 6.6% (i.e., decline to $34.70 per share), the option strategy would “break-even” from an economic perspective resulting in neither a gain nor a loss. If the stock were to climb to a price of $40 or above, the option would be exercised and the stock would return 7.7% coupled with the option premium received of 6.6% for a total return of 14.3%. Under this scenario, the Trust loses the benefit of any appreciation of the stock above $40, and thus is limited to a 14.3% total return. The premium from writing the call option serves to offset some of the unrealized loss on the stock in the event that the price of the stock declines, but if the stock were to decline more than 6.6% under this scenario, the Trust’s downside protection is eliminated and the stock could eventually become worthless.

Each Trust intends to write covered call options to varying degrees depending upon market conditions. Please refer to each Trust’s Schedule of Investments and the Notes to Financial Statements for details of written options.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2014			BlackRock Dividend Income Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock Dividend Income Trust’s (BQY) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of issuers that pay above-average dividends and have the potential for capital appreciation. The Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities that pay dividends. The Trust seeks to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option over-writing strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 7.67% based on market price and 6.58% based on NAV. For the same period, the MSCI World Value Index returned 7.35%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

Relative to the benchmark index, the Trust’s underweight to energy as well as stock selection within the sector detracted from performance for the period. Stock selection in the health care and information technology (“IT”) sectors also had a negative impact. An overweight and stock selection in consumer staples detracted from relative performance, as did individual security selection within financials.

Contributing positively to the Trust’s performance was strong individual stock selection in both the consumer discretionary and industrials sectors. A significant underweight to financials also had a positive impact on relative results. The combination of an overweight and stock selection in utilities added to returns, as did an overweight in the health care sector.

Also, during the period, the Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income

returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s option writing strategy generated net gains during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust sought opportunities in sectors and industries that are likely to be among the earlier beneficiaries of a recovering global economy. The Trust added to U.S. financial companies, select IT names and industrials. The Trust eliminated certain positions within telecommunication services (“telecom”) and utilities in the U.S. and abroad, where valuations had moved higher in recent months.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

As of period end, the investment advisor remains constructive on the ability of corporations to continue to generate cash, especially in the mega-cap space where many firms are well positioned to thrive in a slower-growth environment. The Trust’s largest sector allocations on an absolute basis are financials, consumer staples, industrials, energy and health care, while the Trust maintains smaller exposures to consumer discretionary, telecom, utilities, materials and IT. The Trust remains positioned in high quality stocks, with a special emphasis on affording relative protection and growth of income.

The views expressed reflect the opinions of BlackRock as of the date of this report and are subject to change based on changes in market, economic or other conditions. These views are not intended to be a forecast of future events and are no guarantee of future results.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2014			BlackRock EcoSolutions Investment Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock EcoSolutions Investment Trust’s (BQR) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities issued by companies that are engaged in one or more of New Energy (e.g., products, technologies and services connected to the efficient use of energy or the provision or manufacture of alternative forms of energy), Water Resources and Agriculture business segments. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. The Trust seeks to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option over-writing strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 7.46% based on market price and 5.24% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Utility Funds category posted an average return of 10.57% based on market price and 10.69% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

Many of the Trust’s new energy investments benefited from positive momentum during the period, with particularly robust performance from holdings in the renewable energy technology space. Vestas Wind Systems A/S was among the Trust’s strongest contributors to performance as the company received a number of new orders, finalized its joint venture with Mitsubishi and secured a five-year revolving credit facility on attractive terms. All of these announcements combined have lowered the risks around the stock and it has been rewarded by the market as a result.

Within agriculture, a holding in livestock producer Tyson Foods, Inc. boosted performance. The company, which specializes in chicken, beef and pork production, posted strong earnings for 2013 and raised its earnings expectations for 2014, which also served to ease broader concerns in the market about earnings in the poultry sector given increased competition resulting from lower grain prices. In the water resources segment of the Trust, exposure to water utilities companies had a positive impact on returns, with notable contributions from United Utilities Group PLC and Severn Trent PLC.

Also, during the period, the Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s option writing strategy generated net gains during the period.

Conversely, the Trust’s holding in integrated solar power products manufacturer Trina Solar detracted from performance as investors took profits on the stock following its strong performance in 2013. A position in global agricultural products company Syngenta AG also hurt returns as the company announced a disappointing earnings report reflecting lower-than-expected sales in South America due to a delayed product launch.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust sold a position in agriculture equipment company AGCO Corp. given concerns that the sub-sector will be challenged in the medium-term. The Trust added to a holding in Tyson Foods, Inc. based on a strong outlook for poultry margins in the U.S. In the new energy segment, the Trust initiated a position in energy efficiency company Regal-Beloit Corp., reflecting optimism for a recovery in U.S. non-residential construction markets. In the water segment, the Trust initiated a position in an industrial conglomerate company Danaher Corp.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

As of period end, the Trust continued to hold large allocations to both the water and agriculture segments and less emphasis on the new energy segment.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 6.23% based on market price and 6.83% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Natural Resources Funds category posted an average return of 9.11% based on market price and 9.78% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

The Trust’s positive performance was largely attributable to its exposure to integrated oil & gas stocks. Improved capital discipline and increased focus on free-cash-flow helped drive the performance of large-capitalization, integrated stocks and the Trust benefited from its holdings in Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Exxon Mobil Corp. and BP PLC. Additionally, the cold winter in the U.S. supported high demand for natural gas, and the Trust’s positions in gas producers Southwestern Energy Co., Cimarex Energy Co. and EOG Resources, Inc. generated strong returns for the period.

initial public offering of their Indian subsidiary, Cairn India, in 2006. India’s tax authority cited retrospective legislation introduced in 2012 regarding the taxation of indirect transfers of Indian assets as the reason for the investigation. The Trust retained this position given the company’s strong asset base. Another notable detractor was a position in Noble Energy, Inc., which declined from an October peak as the company’s Israel gas project progressed more slowly than expected.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust added to holdings in large-capitalization, integrated oil & gas names based on an improved outlook for this segment. The Trust also initiated a position in shale gas producer Southwestern Energy Co.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

As of period end, the Trust held its largest allocations in the integrated oil & gas and oil & gas exploration & production sub-industries, and held smaller allocations to oil services, distribution and refining & marketing stocks.

The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a portfolio of equity and debt securities of U.S. and foreign issuers.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 10.40% based on market price and 5.88% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark S&P 500^® Value Index returned 8.91%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

The Trust underperformed the benchmark index due to stock selection in the industrials, information technology (“IT”) and consumer staples sectors. Industry allocation decisions also had a negative impact on relative returns. Notable individual detractors from performance included government science and technology solutions provider Leidos Holdings, Inc. (IT), a company that was spun out from Science Applications International Corp., which is also held by the Trust. Shares of Leidos Holdings, Inc. declined as the company significantly missed earnings estimates. A large position in Japan Airlines Co. Ltd. (industrials) hurt results as Japanese equities broadly suffered after their strong upward move in the first half of 2013. Lastly, shares of European retailer Metro AG (consumer staples) came under pressure given the company’s exposure to Russia as geopolitical tension escalated in Russia and Ukraine.

Contributing positively to performance was stock selection in materials, telecommunication services (“telecom”) and consumer discretionary. Stand-out performers included fertilizer company CF Industries Holdings, Inc. (materials), which posted double-digit gains as the company, under new leadership, announced steps to unlock shareholder value through continued execution by focusing on their cost-advantaged nitrogen business

and enhanced balance sheet management. Online travel provider Expedia, Inc. (consumer discretionary) generated robust performance as the company produced strong earnings while operating within an improving backdrop for online travel services.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

The Trust’s sector weightings are generally a result of individual stock selection. Within this context, the Trust increased exposure to financials, consumer discretionary and IT and decreased exposure to energy during the period. The Trust added several new positions within financials including leading title insurer Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and the newly restructured Ally Financial. Within the consumer discretionary sector, the Trust added positions in Sinclair Broadcasting Group and Nexstar Broadcasting Group, Inc., and took advantage of recent price weakness to increase the position in General Motors Co. Also during the period, the Trust took profits on Google, Inc. and reduced exposure to refining stocks, namely HollyFrontier Corp. and PBF Energy, Inc.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

Relative to the S&P 500^® Value Index, the Trust ended the period overweight in non-banking financials and consumer discretionary, driven by a significant weighting in broadcasters. Conversely, the Trust was significantly underweight in more defensive sectors including consumer staples and utilities.

Trust Overview

BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust’s (BDJ) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to provide current income and current gains, with a secondary investment objective of long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing in common stocks that pay dividends and have the potential for capital appreciation and by utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy to seek total return performance and enhance distributions. The Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its total assets in dividend paying equities. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objectives will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 8.64% based on market price and 6.81% based on NAV. For the same period, the Russell 1000^® Value Index returned 9.61%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

Relative to the benchmark index, the Trust’s overweight to consumer staples as well as stock selection within the sector detracted from performance for the period. An underweight and stock selection in health care also had a negative impact. Individual security selection within the energy sector weighed on returns, specifically due to an underweight position in Exxon Mobil Corp. and an overweight position in Kinder Morgan, Inc. Lastly, underweights and stock selection in both the information technology (“IT”) and utilities sectors detracted from relative performance.

Contributing positively to the Trust’s performance was stock selection within the consumer discretionary sector, particularly due to not owning certain weaker performing automobile and media stocks such as Ford Motor Co., General Motors Co. and Time Warner, Inc. The Trust’s large underweight to financials and overweights in both materials and industrials also helped relative performance during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust sought opportunities in sectors and industries that are likely to be among the earlier beneficiaries of a recovering global economy. The Trust added to U.S. financial companies, select IT names and industrials. The Trust eliminated positions within telecommunication services (“telecom”), utilities and consumer staples, where valuations had moved higher in recent months.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

As of period end, the investment advisor remains constructive on the ability of corporations to continue to generate cash, especially in the mega-cap space where many firms are well positioned to thrive in a slower-growth environment. The Trust’s largest sector allocations on an absolute basis are financials, industrials, energy and health care, while the smallest exposures are telecom, utilities, materials and IT. The Trust remains positioned in high quality stocks, with a special emphasis on affording relative protection and growth of income.

Trust Overview

BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust’s (BOE) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to provide current income and current gains, with a secondary investment objective of long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing primarily in equity securities issued by companies located in countries throughout the world and utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy to seek total return performance and enhance distributions. The Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities or options on equity securities or indices or sectors of equity securities. Under normal circumstances, the Trust invests a substantial amount of its total assets in foreign issuers, issuers that primarily trade in a market located outside the United States or issuers that do a substantial amount of business outside the United States. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objectives will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 4.57% based on market price and 2.91% based on NAV. For the same period, the MSCI All Country World Index posted a return of 5.28%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

Stock selection in the energy sector was the primary cause of the Trust’s underperformance relative to the benchmark index. In particular, Eurasia Drilling Co. Ltd., a Russian provider of onshore drilling services, came under pressure on account of drilling contract disruptions coupled with the geopolitical turmoil in Ukraine, which ultimately led to the Trust exiting the position. In health care, the Trust’s exposure to biotechnology hurt returns as the industry experienced selling pressure during October 2013 and again in March 2014 due to investors taking profits on their recent strong performance.

Contributing positively to relative performance was stock selection within materials and industrials. In the materials sector, strong performance came from selection in the specialty chemicals segment, where the Trust continued to favor well-capitalized businesses with the ability to consistently grow and generate cash flow in excess of their cost of capital.

Within industrials, the Trust’s select transportation holdings American Airlines Group, Inc. and Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. benefited from increased pricing power as a result of industry consolidation.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust pared back exposure to Japan, moving to a slight underweight versus the benchmark index, with most of the sales within consumer discretionary, financials and information technology (“IT”). The proceeds were rotated into stock-specific ideas within health care and also financial stocks that are more sensitive to a recovering U.S. economy.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

Relative to the MSCI All Country World Index, the Trust ended the period overweight in European equities and underweight in both emerging markets and Asia ex-Japan. From a sector perspective, the Trust was most notably overweight in industrials and health care, while the most significant underweights were in the IT and energy sectors.

The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies engaged in the health sciences and related industries and equity derivatives with exposure to the health sciences industry. The Trust seeks to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option overwriting strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 14.88% based on market price and 8.17% based on NAV. For the same period, the Russell 3000^® Healthcare Index returned 10.50%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust moved from a discount to NAV to a premium by period end, which accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

The Trust benefited from positioning in the health care providers & services industry, where an underweight to the lagging health care services segment and stock selection within health care distributors were the key drivers of positive relative performance. Gains also came from the life sciences tools & services industry, largely driven by the Trust’s position in Illumina, Inc., which appreciated after the company released solid financial results.

Despite strong performance from several holdings in both the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, the Trust’s overweight in biotechnology and underweight in pharmaceuticals hindered performance relative to the benchmark index due to the market’s broad rotation in the first quarter of 2014 away from high-growth names that had delivered strong performance in 2013, including biotechnology, and into more value-

centric stocks, such as pharmaceuticals. Notable individual detractors within biotechnology included the Trust’s overweight positions in Aegerion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and BioMarin Pharmaceutical, Inc. and an underweight position in Gilead Sciences, Inc. In pharmaceuticals, an underweight in Merck & Co., Inc. hampered relative performance.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, investment decisions at the individual security level resulted in decreased exposure to biotechnology stocks and slightly increased exposure to both the health care equipment & supplies and pharmaceuticals industries.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

As of period end, health care stock valuations remained reasonable, even after the strong performance of the sector over the previous two years. The Trust continued to maintain a focus on innovative companies and, as such, continued to maintain large allocations to the biotechnol-ogy and pharmaceuticals industries, where the innovation cycle is in an upward trend and is expected to drive a secular growth story. The Trust’s weighting in biotechnology, however, was reduced toward period end due to near-term headwinds. In 2014, the Trust expanded the innovation theme to the health care equipment & supplies industry with investments in several companies with compelling new product launches on the horizon. While policy uncertainty has diminished with the expected implementation of Health Care Reform, changes are still taking place due to austerity measures unfolding globally. As such, the Trust remained underweight in companies that would be at risk if government reimbursements were reduced. However, the new legislation is expected to benefit health care companies generally by creating increased consumer demand, although this trend may take several years to develop.

The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing primarily in equity securities issued by companies of any market capitalization located in countries throughout the world and utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy to seek total return performance and enhance distributions. The Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities issued by non-U.S. companies of any market capitalization located in countries throughout the world.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 3.41% based on market price and 1.99% based on NAV. For the same period, the MSCI All Country World Index Ex-U.S. returned 2.91%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

Positioning within the consumer discretionary sector was the primary cause of the Trust’s underperformance relative to the benchmark index. In particular, Perform Group PLC, a digital sports media company, detracted from performance as the stock came under pressure due to investors’ concerns about greater-than-expected expenses in a small area of the company’s business. The Trust continued to hold Perform Group PLC despite this short-term weakness as the company remains fundamentally attractive and offers further upside potential. Also detracting from the Trust’s performance was stock selection in the utilities sector, where APR Energy PLC sold off due to investors’ concerns about the company’s contract concentration risk in Libya. However, the company’s good business momentum reinforces the view that APR Energy’s long-term fundamental story remains intact and as such, the Trust retained this position.

Stock selection in health care and materials were the largest relative contributors to performance. In healthcare, multiple holdings across the pharmaceuticals sub-industry delivered strong returns due to a combination

of pipeline potential, solid financial results and, most recently, increased M&A activity. In materials, stock selection in the specialty chemicals sub-industry, where we continue to favor well-capitalized businesses with the ability to consistently grow and generate cash flow in excess of their cost of capital, was also additive to performance.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust decreased the allocation to developed Europe, with the largest reductions focused in the United Kingdom and France. The proceeds were used to add to Japanese equities positioned to benefit from the continuation of the Bank of Japan’s reflationary policies, most notably within the industrials and financials sectors.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

Relative to the MSCI All Country World Index Ex-U.S., the Trust was overweight Europe with the largest allocations centered on globally oriented businesses domiciled in Switzerland and Ireland. From a sector perspective, the Trust was most notably overweight the industrials and health care sectors, while its most significant underweights were in the consumer staples, energy and financials sectors.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2014			BlackRock Real Asset Equity Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock Real Asset Equity Trust’s (BCF) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of energy, natural resources and basic materials companies and equity derivatives with exposure to companies in the energy, natural resources and basic materials industries. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. The Trust seeks to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option over-writing strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 4.11% based on market price and 5.32% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Natural Resources Funds category posted an average return of 9.11% based on market price and 9.78% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

The Trust’s position in Caterpillar, Inc. was the largest contributor to positive performance. The company delivered better-than-expected earnings for the first quarter of 2014, through improved cost control and increasingly efficient execution. The company also benefited from a recovering U.S. economy and improving housing starts domestically. A position in Royal Dutch Shell PLC also had a notable impact on returns as investors reacted positively to structural changes within the company during the period.

The Trust’s holding in Cairn Energy PLC, a global oil & gas exploration & production company, was among the largest detractors from performance. Shares of Cairn Energy PLC fell as the company came under scrutiny from the Indian tax authority due to a matter relating to the initial public offering of their Indian subsidiary, Cairn India, in 2006. India’s tax authority cited retrospective legislation introduced in 2012 regarding the taxation of indirect transfers of Indian assets as the reason for the investigation. The Trust retained this position given the company’s strong asset base. Elsewhere, the Trust’s exposure to silver producers, namely Fresnillo PLC and Industrias Penoles SAB de CV (which owns 75% of Fresnillo), had a negative impact on returns as falling silver prices pressured margins and deteriorated growth prospects for these companies during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust took some profits on its position in Caterpillar, Inc. following the stock’s strong performance earlier in the period. Within the energy space, the Trust initiated a holding in Cimarex Energy Co., an oil & gas exploration & production company that operates in the Permian basin.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

As of period end, the energy sector was the Trust’s largest allocation, while the remaining exposure was divided broadly between metals & mining and basic materials.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2014			BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust’s (BCX) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to seek high current income and current gains, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Trust will seek to achieve its investment objectives, under normal market conditions,by investing at least 80% of its total assets in equity securities issued by commodity or natural resources companies, derivatives with exposure to commodity or natural resources companies or investments in securities and derivatives linked to the underlying price movement of commodities or natural resources. While permitted, the Trust does not currently expect to invest in securities and derivatives linked to the underlying price movement of commodities or natural resources. The Trust seeks to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option overwriting strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objectives will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 7.05% based on market price and 7.09% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Natural Resources Funds category posted an average return of 9.11% based on market price and 9.78% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

The Trust’s position in Ultra Petroleum Corp. was the largest contributor to positive performance as the stock moved higher after reporting strong earnings for the first quarter of 2014. A number of the major integrated oil & gas companies also reported robust earnings for the year 2013 and first quarter of 2014. Many energy companies delivered strong first-quarter performance as they benefited from higher natural gas prices driven by the colder-than-usual winter in North America. Additionally, oil & gas exploration & production companies began to deliver on their production forecasts, adding further support to this segment. In this environment, the Trust benefited from holdings in Chevron Corp., Exxon Mobil Corp., Royal Dutch Shell PLC and BHP Billiton Ltd.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust initiated a position in lumber producer Canfor Corp. as a favorable supply of feedstock materials and a possible pick-up in construction demand improves the outlook for lumber producers. In the mining space, the Trust increased exposure to nickel by adding to a holding in MMC Norilsk Nickel OJSC. Also during the period, the Trust took some profits on investments in the integrated oil & gas segment, including the sale of Hess Corp. following the stock’s strong performance.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

As of period end, the energy sector continued to be the Trust’s largest allocation, while the remaining exposure was divided broadly between metals & mining and agriculture-related stocks. This positioning reflects the relative outlooks and valuations for each of these segments.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2014			BlackRock Utility and Infrastructure Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock Utility and Infrastructure Trust’s (BUI) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities issued by companies that are engaged in the Utilities and Infrastructure business segments anywhere in the world and by utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions. The Trust considers the “Utilities” business segment to include products, technologies and services connected to the management, ownership, operation, construction, development or financing of facilities usedto generate, transmit or distribute electricity, water, natural resources or telecommunications and the “Infrastructure” business segment to include companies that own or operate infrastructure assets or that are involved in the development, construction, distribution or financing of infrastructure assets. Under normal circumstances, the Trust invests a substantial amount of its total assets in foreign issuers, issuers that primarily trade in a market located outside the United States or issuers that do a substantial amount of business outside the United States. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, the Trust returned 9.65% based on market price and 11.10% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Utility Funds category posted an average return of 10.57% based on market price and 10.69% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

The largest contributor to the Trust’s performance during the period was an allocation to electric utility stocks. Allocations to the multi-utilities and diversified telecommunication services (“telecom”) industries had a positive impact as well. Smaller allocations to the highways & rail tracks and airport services sub-industries within transportation infrastructure also added meaningfully to performance during the period.

Conversely, the Trust’s exposure to the renewable electricity sub-industry detracted from returns, as did an allocation to marine ports & services. A small allocation to oil & gas drilling stocks also detracted marginally.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

During the six-month period, the Trust added certain companies within the energy, telecom and utilities sectors deemed likely to perform well in the current stage of the global economic recovery. These names included Valero Energy Partners LP, Enable Midstream Partners, Frontier Communications and Veolia Environment. The Trust selectively reduced exposure to Brazil given concerns about local economic growth and political uncertainty leading up to the country’s October elections.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

After an unusually harsh winter posed a short-term tailwind for the U.S. utilities, stock selection within this space continued to emphasize companies that demonstrate strong growth in earnings and dividends driven by their investment in core infrastructure projects such as improving electric transmission and distribution. The Trust also continued to identify investment opportunities in Europe given attractive valuations. In an environment of higher government tax rates, regulated corporations have turned their focus to cost-cutting, which helps to strengthen their financial position as local economies improve. In the energy sector, master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) continue to present a significant opportunity as more companies are adopting the MLP structure as a vehicle to create value for shareholders. With respect to construction/infrastructure companies, the Trust maintained a focus on quality given a trend in which the strongest companies are getting stronger while the weakest are disappearing.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Trusts may invest in various derivative financial instruments, including options, as specified in Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements, which may constitute forms of economic leverage. Such derivative financial instruments are used to obtain exposure to a security, index and/or market without owning or taking physical custody of securities or to hedge market, equity and/or other risks. Derivative financial instruments involve risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative financial instrument and the underlying asset, possible default of the counterparty to the transaction or illiquidity of the derivative financial instrument. The Trusts’ ability to use a derivative financial instrument

successfully depends on the investment advisor’s ability to predict pertinent market movements accurately, which cannot be assured. The use of derivative financial instruments may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may require a Trust to sell or purchase portfolio investments at inopportune times or for distressed values, may limit the amount of appreciation a Trust can realize on an investment, may result in lower dividends paid to shareholders or may cause a Trust to hold an investment that it might otherwise sell. The Trusts’ investments in these instruments are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows:

Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Trust has the ability to access

Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs)

Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following tables summarize the Trust’s investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy as of April 30, 2014:

Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Trust has the ability to access

Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, vola- tilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs)

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unob- servable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for invest- ments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following tables summarize the Trust’s investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy as of April 30, 2014:

Certain foreign securities are fair valued utilizing an external pricing service to reflect any significant market movements between the time the Trust values such foreign securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the disclosure hierarchy. As of October 31, 2013 the Trust did not utilize the external pricing service model adjustments as significant market movements did not occur. As of April 30, 2014, securities with a value of $71,210,163 were systematically fair valued due to significant market movements. Therefore, these securities were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the period October 31, 2013 to April 30, 2014.

A reconciliation of Level 3 investments is presented when the Trust had a significant amount of Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to net assets.

The carrying amount for certain of the Trust’s assets and/or liabilities approximates fair value for financial statement purposes. As of April 30, 2014, such assets and/or liabilities are categorized within the disclosure hierarchy as follows:

	Level 1			Level 2			Level 3		Total

The Trust’s investments that are categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information inputs could result in a significantly lower or higher value of such Level 3 investments.

Certain foreign securities are fair valued utilizing an external pricing service to reflect any significant market movements between the time the Trust values such foreign securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the disclosure hierarchy. As of October 31, 2013, securities with a value of $3,620,423 were systematically fair valued due to significant market movements, but were not valued using systematic fair values as of April 30, 2014. Therefore, these securities were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 during the period October 31, 2013 to April 30, 2014.

The Trust’s investments that are categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information inputs could result in a significantly lower or higher value of such Level 3 investments.

Certain foreign securities are fair valued utilizing an external pricing service to reflect any significant market movements between the time the Trust values such foreign securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the disclosure hierarchy. As of October 31, 2013, the Trust did not utilize the external pricing service model adjustments as significant market movements did not occur. As of April 30 2014, securities with a value of $119,208,229 were systematically fair valued due to significant market movements. Therefore, these securities were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the period October 31, 2013 to April 30, 2014.

Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Trust has the ability to access

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instrument, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

¹ Derivative financial instruments are options written, which are shown at value.

The carrying amount for certain of the Trust’s assets approximates fair value for financial statement purposes. As of April 30, 2014, such assets are categorized within the disclosure hierarchy as follows:


	Level 1			Level 2			Level 3		Total

Assets:

Foreign currency at value		190,232			—			—		190,232

Total	$	213,895			—			—	$	213,895

Certain foreign securities are fair valued utilizing an external pricing service to reflect any significant market movements between the time the Trust values such foreign securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets. Such fair valuations are categorized as Level 2 in the disclosure hierarchy. As of October 31, 2013 the Trust did not utilize the external pricing service model adjustments as significant market movements did not occur. As of April 30 2014, securities with a value of $7,807,764 were systematically fair valued due to significant market movements. Therefore, these securities were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the period October 31, 2013 to April 30, 2014.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization:

BlackRock Dividend Income Trust (“BQY”), BlackRock EcoSolutions Investment Trust (“BQR”), BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust (“BGR”), BlackRock Enhanced Capital and Income Fund, Inc. (“CII”), BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust (“BDJ”), BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust (“BOE”), BlackRock Health Sciences Trust (“BME”), BlackRock International Growth and Income Trust (“BGY”), BlackRock Real Asset Equity Trust (“BCF”), BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust (“BCX”), and BlackRock Utility and Infrastructure Trust (“BUI”) (each, a “Trust” and collectively, the “Trusts”) are organized as Delaware statutory trusts, except CII which is organized as a Maryland Corporation. BQY, CII, BDJ and BOE are registered as diversified, closed-end management investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). BQR, BGR, BME, BGY, BCF, BCX and BUI are registered as non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies under the 1940 Act. The Board of Directors and Board of Trustees of the Trusts are collectively referred to throughout this report as the “Board of Trustees” or the “Board”, and the directors/trustees thereof are collectively referred to throughout this report as “Trustees.” The Trusts determine and make available for publication the NAVs of their shares on a daily basis.

Basis of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BlackRock Cayman Resources & Commodities Strategy Fund, Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of BCX and primarily invests in commodity-related instruments. The Subsidiary enables BCX to hold these commodity-related instruments and satisfy regulated investment company tax requirements. BCX may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions, if any, have been eliminated. The Subsidiary is subject to the same investment policies and restrictions that apply to BCX, except that the Subsidiary may invest without limitation in commodity-related instruments.

The Trusts, together with certain other registered investment companies advised by the Manager or its affiliates, are included in a complex of closed-end funds referred to as the Closed-End Complex.

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

The Trusts’ financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trusts.

Valuation: U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price the Trusts would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Trusts determine the fair values of their financial instruments at market value using independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board. The BlackRock Global Valuation

Methodologies Committee (the “Global Valuation Committee”) is the committee formed by management to develop global pricing policies and procedures and to provide oversight of the pricing function for the Trusts for all financial instruments.

Equity investments traded on a recognized securities exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the last reported sale price that day or the NASDAQ official closing price, if applicable. For equity investments traded on more than one exchange, the last reported sale price on the exchange where the stock is primarily traded is used. Equity investments traded on a recognized exchange for which there were no sales on that day are valued at the last available bid. Investments in open-end registered investment companies are valued at the NAV each business day

The Trusts value their bond investments on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by dealers or pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the market between investments and calculated yield measures. Investments in open-end registered investment companies are valued at NAV each business day.

The Trust value their investments in BlackRock Liquidity Series, LLC Money Market Series (the “Money Market Series”) are valued at fair value, which is ordinarily based upon each Trust’s pro rata ownership in the underlying fund’s net assets. The Money Market Series seeks current income consistent with maintaining liquidity and preserving capital. Although the Money Market Series is not registered under the 1940 Act, its investments will follow the parameters of investments by a money market fund that is subject to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. The Trusts may withdraw up to 25% of their investment daily, although the manager of the Money Market Series, in its sole discretion, may permit an investor to withdraw more than 25% on any one day.

Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates determined as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at the mean between the bid and ask prices and are determined as of the close of business on the NYSE. Interpolated values are derived when the settlement date of the contract is an interim date for which quotations are not available.

Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices at the close of the options market in which the options trade. An exchange-traded option for which there is no mean price is valued at the last bid (long positions) or ask (short positions) price. If no bid or ask price is available, the prior day’s price will be used, unless it is determined that the prior day’s price no longer reflects the fair value of the option. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options are valued by an independent pricing service using a mathematical model which


130		SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT		APRIL 30, 2014


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

incorporates a number of market data factors, such as the trades and prices of the underlying instruments.

In the event that the application of these methods of valuation results in a price for an investment that is deemed not to be representative of the market value of such investment, or if a price is not available, the investment will be valued by the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, in accordance with a policy approved by the Board as reflecting fair value (“Fair Value Assets”). When determining the price for Fair Value Assets, the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, seeks to determine the price that each Trust might reasonably expect to receive from the current sale of that asset in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon all available factors that the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, deems relevant consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, which include the market approach, income approach and/or in the case of recent investments, the cost approach, as appropriate. The market approach generally consists of using comparable market transactions. The income approach generally is used to discount future cash flows to present value and is adjusted for liquidity as appropriate. These factors include but are not limited to: (i) attributes specific to the investment or asset; (ii) the principal market for the investment or asset; (iii) the customary participants in the principal market for the investment or asset; (iv) data assumptions by market participants for the investment or asset, if reasonably available; (v) quoted prices for similar investments or assets in active markets; and (vi) other factors, such as future cash flows, interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, recovery rates, liquidation amounts and/or default rates. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ from the values that would have been used had an active market existed. The Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, employs various methods for calibrating valuation approaches for investments where an active market does not exist, including regular due diligence of the Trusts’ pricing vendors, regular reviews of key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis to compare unrealized gains and losses to realized gains and losses, reviews of missing or stale prices and large movements in market values and reviews of any market related activity. The pricing of all Fair Value Assets is subsequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof on a quarterly basis.

Generally, trading in foreign instruments is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such instruments may occur between the foreign market close and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of each Trust’s net assets. If events (e.g., a company announcement, market volatility or a natural disaster) occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the value of such instruments, those instruments may be Fair Value Assets and valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Global Valuation Committee, or it’s delegate, using a pricing service and/or policies approved by the Board. Each business day, each Trust uses a pricing service to assist with the valuation of certain foreign exchange-traded equity securities and foreign exchange-traded

and OTC options (the “Systematic Fair Value Price”). Using current market factors, the Systematic Fair Value Price is designed to value such foreign securities and foreign options at fair value as of the close of business on the NYSE, which follows the close of the local markets.

Foreign Currency: The Trusts’ books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Purchases and sales of investment securities are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective date of such transactions. Generally, when the U.S. dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, the Trusts’ investments denominated in that currency will lose value because that currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars; the opposite effect occurs if the U.S. dollar falls in relative value.

The Trusts do not isolate the portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the market prices of investments held or sold for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments are not segregated in the Statements of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those investments but are included as a component of net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investments. The Trusts report realized currency gains (losses) on foreign currency related transactions as components of net realized gain (loss) for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are generally treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Segregation and Collateralization: In cases where a Trust enters into certain investments (e.g., options written), that would be “senior securities” for 1940 Act purposes, such Trust may segregate or designate on its books and records cash or liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount of a Trust’s future obligations under such investments or borrowings. Doing so allows the investment to be excluded from treatment as a “senior security.” Furthermore, if required by an exchange or counterparty agreement, each Trust may be required to deliver/deposit cash and/or securities to/with an exchange, or broker-dealer or custodian as collateral for certain investments or obligations.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into (the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are subsequently recorded when a Trust is informed of the ex-dividend date. Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax at various rates may be imposed on capital gains, dividends and interest. Upon notification from issuers, some of the dividend income received from a real estate investment trust may be redesignated as a reduction of cost of the related investment and/or realized gain. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on debt securities, is recognized on the accrual basis.


		SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT		APRIL 30, 2014		131


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions paid by the Trusts are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Subject to each Trust’s level distribution plan, each Trust intends to make quarterly cash dividends and/or distributions to shareholders, which may consist of net investment income, net options premium, net realized and unrealized gains on investments, and/or return of capital.

Portions of return of capital distributions under U.S. GAAP may be taxed at ordinary income rates.

The character of dividends and distributions is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. The portion of distributions that exceeds a Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, which are measured on a tax basis, will constitute a non-taxable return of capital. Realized net capital gains can be offset by capital losses carried forward from prior years. However, certain Trusts have capital loss carry-forwards from pre-2012 tax years that offset realized net capital gains but do not offset current earnings and profits. Consequently, if distributions in any tax year are less than a Trust’s current earnings and profits but greater than net investment income and net realized capital gains (taxable income), distributions in excess of taxable income are not treated as non-taxable return of capital, but rather may be taxable to shareholders at ordinary income rates. Under certain circumstances, taxable excess distributions could be significant.

Net income and realized gains from investments held by the Subsidiary are treated as ordinary income for tax purposes. Accordingly, the net investment income (loss) and realized gains (losses) reported in the Trust’s financial statements presented under U.S. GAAP for such investments held by the Subsidiary may differ significantly from income dividends and capital gain distributions. As such, any net gain will pass through to the Trust as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary in any taxable year, the loss will generally not be available to offset the Trust’s ordinary income and/or capital gains for that year.

Income Taxes: It is the Trusts’ policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of their taxable income to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

The Trusts file U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on the Trusts’ U.S. federal tax returns remains open for each of the four years ended October 31, 2013 with the exception of BCX and BUI. The statute of limitations on BCX’s U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the two years ended October 31, 2013 and the period ended October 31, 2011. The statute of limitations on BUI’s U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the year ended October 31, 2013 and the period ended October 31, 2012. The statutes of limitations on each Trust’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

Management has analyzed tax laws and regulations and their application to the Trusts’ facts and circumstances and does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

Deferred Compensation: Under the Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) approved by each Trust’s Board, except CII, the independent Trustees (“Independent Trustees”) may defer a portion of their annual complex-wide compensation. Deferred amounts earn an approximate return as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of certain other BlackRock Closed-End Funds selected by the Independent Trustees. This has the same economic effect for the Independent Trustees as if the Independent Trustees had invested the deferred amounts directly in certain other BlackRock Closed-End Funds.

The Plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of each Trust. Deferred compensation liabilities are included in officer’s and trustees fees payable in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and will remain as a liability of the Trusts until such amounts are distributed in accordance with the Plan.

S&P Quality Rankings: BQY had been granted a license by Standard & Poor’s^® (“S&P”) to use the S&P Quality Rankings and the S&P International Quality Rankings. Effective September 17, 2013, BQY terminated its license to use either the S&P Quality Rankings or the S&P International Quality Rankings. “Standard & Poor’s,” “S&P,” “Standard & Poor’s Earnings and Dividend Rankings,” “S&P Earnings and Dividend Rankings,” “Standard & Poor’s Quality Rankings,” “Standard & Poor’s International Quality Rankings,” “S&P International Quality Rankings” and “S&P Quality Rankings” are trademarks of S&P and had been licensed for use by BQY. BQY was not sponsored, endorsed, managed, sold or promoted by S&P and S&P made no representation regarding the advisability of investing in BQY. BQY is required to pay a quarterly licensing fee, which is shown in the Statements of Operations as licensing, for a period of 1 year following the termination date.

Other: Expenses directly related to a Trust are charged to that Trust. Other operating expenses shared by several funds are pro rated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods.

The Trusts have an arrangement with the custodian whereby fees may be reduced by credits earned on uninvested cash balances, which, if applicable, are shown as fees paid indirectly in the Statements of Operations. The custodian imposes fees on overdrawn cash balances, which can be offset by accumulated credits earned or may result in additional custody charges.

3. Securities and Other Investments:

Preferred Stock: The Trusts may invest in preferred stock. Preferred stock has a preference over common stock in liquidation (and generally in receiving dividends as well) but is subordinated to the liabilities of the issuer in all respects. As a general rule, the market value of preferred


132		SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT		APRIL 30, 2014


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

stock with a fixed dividend rate and no conversion element varies inversely with interest rates and perceived credit risk, while the market price of convertible preferred stock generally also reflects some element of conversion value. Because preferred stock is junior to debt securities and other obligations of the issuer, deterioration in the credit quality of the issuer will cause greater changes in the value of a preferred stock than in a more senior debt security with similar stated yield characteristics. Unlike interest payments on debt securities, preferred stock dividends are payable only if declared by the issuer’s board of directors. Preferred stock also may be subject to optional or mandatory redemption provisions.

Securities Lending: Each Trust may lend its securities to approved borrowers, such as brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. The initial collateral received by the Trust is required to have a value of at least 102% of the current value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a value equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of each business day of the Trust and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Trust on the next business day. During the term of the loan, the Trust earns dividend or interest income on the securities loaned but does not receive interest income on any securities received as collateral. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

The market value of securities on loan and the value of the related collateral are shown separately in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a component of investments at value, and collateral on securities loaned at value, respectively. As of April 30, 2014, any securities on loan were collateralized by cash. The cash collateral invested by the securities lending agent, BlackRock Investment Management, LLC (“BIM”), if any, is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments.

Securities lending transactions are entered into by the Trusts under Master Securities Lending Agreements (each an “MSLA”) which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate a net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. In the event that a borrower defaults, the Trusts, as lender, would offset the market value of the collateral received against the market value of the securities loaned. The value of the collateral is typically greater than that of the market value of the securities loaned, leaving the lender with a

net amount payable to the defaulting party. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of an MSLA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Under the MSLA, the borrower can resell or re-pledge the loaned securities, and the Trusts can reinvest cash collateral, or, upon an event of default, resell or re-pledge the collateral.

The following table is a summary of the Trusts’ securities lending agreements by counterparty which are subject to offset under an MSLA as of April 30, 2014:

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

The risks of securities lending include the risk that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due. To mitigate these risks, the Trusts benefit from a borrower default indemnity provided by BIM. BIM’s indemnity allows for full replacement of the securities lent. The Trusts could suffer a loss if the value of an investment purchased with cash collateral falls below the market value of loaned securities or if the value of an investment purchased with cash collateral falls below the value of the original cash collateral received.

4. Derivative Financial Instruments:

The Trusts engage in various portfolio investment strategies using derivative contracts both to increase the returns of the Trusts and/or to economically hedge, their exposure to certain risks such as equity risk. These contracts may be transacted on an exchange or OTC.

Options: The Trusts purchase and write call and put options to increase or decrease their exposure to underlying instruments (including equity risk and/or commodity price risk) and/or, in the case of options written, to generate gains from options premiums. A call option gives the purchaser (holder) of the option the right (but not the obligation) to buy, and obligates the seller (writer) to sell (when the option is exercised), the underlying instrument at the exercise or strike price at any time or at a specified time during the option period. A put option gives the holder the right to sell and obligates the writer to buy the underlying instrument

at the exercise or strike price at any time or at a specified time during the option period. When the Trusts purchase (write) an option, an amount equal to the premium paid (received) by the Trusts is reflected as an asset (liability). The amount of the asset (liability) is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased (written). When an instrument is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the instrument acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the instrument sold. When an option expires (or the Trusts enter into a closing transaction), the Trusts realize a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premiums received or paid). When the Trusts write a call option, such option is “covered,” meaning that the Trusts hold the underlying instrument subject to being called by the option counterparty. When the Trusts write a put option, such option is covered by cash in an amount sufficient to cover the obligation.

In purchasing and writing options, the Trusts bear the risk of an unfavorable change in the value of the underlying instrument or the risk that the Trusts may not be able to enter into a closing transaction due to an illiquid market. Exercise of a written option could result in the Trusts purchasing or selling a security when it otherwise would not, or at a price different from the current market value.

Counterparty Credit Risk: A derivative contract may suffer a mark to market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. Losses can also occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

A Trust’s risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral held by such Trust.

For OTC options purchased, each Trust bears the risk of loss of the amount of the premiums paid plus the positive change in market values net of any collateral held by such Trust should the counterparty fail to


		SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT		APRIL 30, 2014		135


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

perform under the contracts. Options written by the Trusts do not typically give rise to counterparty credit risk, as options written generally obligate the Trusts, and not, the counterparty to perform.

With exchange traded purchased options, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Trusts since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Trusts.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Trusts mitigate its counterparty risk, the Trusts may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivative contract counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between each Trust and a counterparty that governs certain OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, each Trust may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. When the Trusts enters into an ISDA and an MRA and/or MSLA with the same counterparty, the agreements may contain a set-off provision allowing a trust to offset a net amount payable with amounts due to the Trust upon default of the counterparty. Bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. For example, notwithstanding what contractual rights may be included in an ISDA Master Agreement, such laws may prohibit the Trust from setting off

amounts owed to a defaulting counterparty under an ISDA Master Agreement against amounts owed to the Trust by affiliates of the defaulting counterparty. The insolvency regimes of many jurisdictions do, however, generally permit set-off of simultaneous payables and receivables under certain types of financial contracts between the same legal entity upon a default of the entity, regardless of the existence of a contractual set-off right in those contracts. In addition, certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to OTC derivatives to terminate derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event the Trust’s net assets decline by a stated percentage or the Trust fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Trust to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.

Collateral Requirements: For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Trust and the counterparty.

Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Trust and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged as collateral and cash received as collateral, respectively. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Trust, if any, is noted in the Schedule of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold (typically either $250,000 or $500,000) before a transfer is required, which is determined at the close of business of the Trusts and any additional required collateral is delivered to/pledged by the Trusts on the next business day. Typically, the Trusts and counterparties are not permitted to sell, re-pledge or use the collateral they receive. To the extent amounts due to a Trust from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, a Trust bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance.

For financial reporting purposes, the Trusts do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements, if any, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

At April 30, 2014, the Trusts’ derivative assets and liabilities (by type) are as follows:

5. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. is the largest stockholder and an affiliate, for 1940 Act purposes, of BlackRock.

Each Trust entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Trusts’ investment advisor, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, to provide investment advisory and administration services. The Manager is responsible for the management of each Trust’s portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of each Trust. For such services, each Trust pays the Manager a monthly fee at the following annual rates:


Average weekly value of each Trust’s net assets:
BQY	0.75	%
BGR	1.20	%
BDJ	0.81	%
BOE	1.00	%
BME	1.00	%
BCF	1.20	%
Average daily value of each Trust’s net assets:
BQR	1.20	%
CII	0.85	%
BGY	1.00	%
BCX	1.20	%
BUI	1.00	%

The Manager has agreed to waive 0.05% of the investment advisory fees on BCF as a percentage of their average weekly net assets expiring on September 29, 2014.

The Manager has agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory fees on BCX as a percentage of its average daily net assets as follows:

Effective June 6, 2013, the Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory fees on BQR and BGY as a percentage of their average daily net assets as follows:


BQR	0.05	%
BGY	0.05	%

The Manager provides investment management and other services to the Subsidiary. The Manager does not receive separate compensation from the Subsidiary for providing investment management or administrative services. However, BCX pays the Manager based on the Trust’s net assets which includes the assets of the Subsidiary.

The Manager voluntarily agreed to waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees each Trust pays to the Manager indirectly through its investment in affiliated money market funds. However, the Manager does not waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees paid in connection with each Trust’s investment in other affiliated investment companies, if any. These amounts are included in fees waived by Manager in the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended April 30, 2014, the amounts waived were as follows:


BQY	$	1,454
BQR	$	2,196
BGR	$	17,438
CII	$	6,892
BDJ	$	17,620
BOE	$	9,395
BME	$	2,456
BGY	$	7,384
BCF	$	7,284
BCX	$	8,742
BUI	$	3,359

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

they provide, a monthly fee that is a percentage of the investment advisory fee paid by each Trust to the Manager.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has issued an exemptive order which permits BIM, an affiliate of the Manager, to serve as securities lending agent for the Trusts, subject to applicable conditions. As securities lending agent, BIM bears all operational costs directly related to securities lending. The Trusts are responsible for expenses in connection with the investment of cash collateral received for securities on loan (the “collateral investment expenses”). The cash collateral is invested in a private investment company managed by the Manager or its affiliates. However, BIM has agreed to cap the collateral investment expenses of the private investment company to an annual rate of 0.04%. The investment advisor to the private investment company will not charge any advisory fees with respect to shares purchased by the Trusts.

Securities lending income is equal to the total of income earned from the reinvestment of cash collateral, net of fees and other payments to and from borrowers of securities, and less the collateral investment expenses. Each Trust retains a portion of securities lending income and remits a remaining portion to BIM as compensation for its services as securities lending agent. Pursuant to the securities lending agreement effective February 1, 2014, BIM may lend securities only when the difference between the borrower rebate rate and the risk free rate exceeds a certain level (such securities, the “specials only securities”).

Pursuant to such agreement, each Trust retains 80% of securities lending income. In addition, commencing the business day following the date that the aggregate securities lending income earned across the Closed-End Complex in a calendar year exceeds the breakpoint dollar threshold applicable in the given year as set forth in the securities lending agreement, each Trust, pursuant to the securities lending agreement, will retain for the remainder of the calendar year securities lending income in an amount equal to 85% of securities lending income. Prior to February 1, 2014, each Trust retained 65% of securities lending income and paid a fee to BIM equal to 35% of such income. The share of securities lending income earned by each Trust is shown as securities lending — affiliated — net in the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended April 30, 2014, each Trust paid BIM the following amounts for securities lending agent services:


BQR	$	282
BOE	$	14,858
BME	$	86
BGY	$	11,427
BCF	$	34

Certain Trusts recorded payments from an affiliate to compensate for foregone securities lending revenue which is included in other income -affiliated in the Statements of Operations as follows:


BQY	$	1,802
BQR	$	3,778
BGR	$	7,901
CII	$	843
BDJ	$	7,663
BOE	$	7,530
BME	$	2,267
BGY	$	7,166
BCF	$	3,498
BCX	$	21,128
BUI	$	3,288

Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trusts are officers and/or trustees of BlackRock or its affiliates. The Trusts reimburse the Manager for a portion of the compensation paid to the Trusts’ Chief Compliance Officer, which is included in officer and directors in the Statement of Operations.

The Trusts may purchase securities from, or sell securities to, an affiliated fund provided the affiliation is due solely to having a common investment adviser, common officers, or common trustees. For the six months ended April 30, 2014, the purchase and sale transactions with an affiliated fund in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act were as follows:

8. Concentration, Market and Credit Risk:

In the normal course of business, the Trusts invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Trusts may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Trusts; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Trusts may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Trusts have unsettled or open transactions may fail

to or be unable to perform on its commitments. The Trusts manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Trusts to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Trusts’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Trusts.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

As of April 30, 2014, the Trusts listed below invested a significant portion of their assets in securities in the following sectors:


Utilities		BQR, BUI
Energy		BGR, BCF, BCX
Health Care		BME
Financials		BQY, CII, BDJ
Information Technology		CII
Materials		BCF, BCX

Changes in economic conditions affecting these sectors would have a greater impact on these Trusts and could affect the value, income and/or liquidity of positions in such securities.

BOE invests a substantial amount of their assets in issuers located in a single country or a limited number of countries. When a Trust concentrates its investments in this manner, it assumes the risk that economic, political and social conditions in those countries may have a significant impact on their investment performance. Foreign issuers may not be subject to the same uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and practices as used in the U.S. Foreign securities markets may also be less liquid, more volatile, and less subject to governmental supervision not typically associated with investing in United States securities. Please see the Schedule of Investments for concentrations in specific countries.

As of April 30, 2014, the Trusts’ investments listed below had the following industry classifications:


Industry	BOE			BGY
Banks		11	%		13	%
Pharmaceuticals		9			11
Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels		5			5
Machinery		2			5
Other*		73			66

All other industries held were each less than 5%.

9. Capital Share Transactions:

There are an unlimited number of $0.001 par value common shares of beneficial interest authorized for each Trust, with the exception of CII. CII is authorized to issue 200 million shares of $0.10 par value shares, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. The Board is authorized, however, to reclassify any unissued Common Shares to Preferred Shares without approval of Common Shareholders.

Shares issued and outstanding during the six months ended April 30, 2014 and the year ended October 31, 2013 increased by the following amounts as a result of dividend reinvestments:


	Six Months Ended April 30, 2014		Year Ended October 31, 2013
BME		51,878		31,115

Shares issued and outstanding remained constant for BQY, BQR, BGR, CII, BDJ, BOE, BGY, BCF, BCX and BUI for the six months ended April 30, 2014 and the year ended October 31, 2013.

10. Subsequent Events:

	Common Dividend per Share
BQY	$	0.23000
BOE	$	0.31165
BUI	$	0.36250

Additionally, certain Trusts declared a net investment income dividend distribution in the following amounts per share on June 2, 2014 payable to shareholders of record on June 16, 2014 as follows:

Distribution rates and relevant dates for the Trusts’ initial monthly distributions will be announced, subject to each Trust’s declaration of such distributions at the discretion of the Board, in August and September, as applicable.

Additional Information (concluded)

Dividend Policy

Each Trust’s dividend policy is to distribute all or a portion of its net investment income to its shareholders on a quarterly basis. In order to provide shareholders with a more stable level of dividend distributions, the dividends paid by the Trusts for any particular quarter may be more or less than the amount of net investment income earned by the Trusts during such quarter. The portion of dividend distributions that exceeds a Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, which are measured on a tax basis, will constitute a nontaxable return of capital.

Dividend distributions in excess of a Trust’s taxable income and net capital gains, but not in excess of a Trust’s earnings and profits, will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income and will not constitute a non-taxable return of capital. The Trusts’ current accumulated but undistributed net investment income, if any, is disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, which comprises part of the financial information included in this report.

(iv) Potential Material Conflicts of Interest

BlackRock has built a professional working environment, firm-wide compliance culture and compliance procedures and systems designed to protect against potential incentives that may favor one account over another. BlackRock has adopted policies and procedures that address the allocation of investment opportunities, execution of portfolio transactions, personal trading by employees and other potential conflicts of interest that are designed to ensure that all client accounts are treated equitably over time. Nevertheless, BlackRock furnishes investment management and advisory services to numerous clients in addition to the Fund, and BlackRock may, consistent with applicable law, make investment

recommendations to other clients or accounts (including accounts which are hedge funds or have performance or higher fees paid to BlackRock, or in which portfolio managers have a personal interest in the receipt of such fees), which may be the same as or different from those made to the Fund. In addition, BlackRock, Inc. its affiliates and significant shareholders and any officer, director, shareholder or employee may or may not have an interest in the securities whose purchase and sale BlackRock recommends to the Fund. BlackRock, Inc. or any of its affiliates or significant shareholders, or any officer, director, shareholder, employee or any member of their families may take different actions than those recommended to the Fund by BlackRock with respect to the same securities. Moreover, BlackRock may refrain from rendering any advice or services concerning securities of companies of which any of BlackRock, Inc.’s (or its affiliates’ or significant shareholders’) officers, directors or employees are directors or officers, or companies as to which BlackRock, Inc. or any of its affiliates or significant shareholders or the officers, directors and employees of any of them has any substantial economic interest or possesses material non-public information. Certain portfolio managers also may manage accounts whose investment strategies may at times be opposed to the strategy utilized for the Fund. It should also be noted that Mr. Cheung may be managing certain hedge fund and/or long only accounts, or may be part of a team managing certain hedge fund and/or long only accounts, subject to incentive fees. Mr. Cheung may therefore be entitled to receive a portion of any incentive fees earned on such accounts.

As a fiduciary, BlackRock owes a duty of loyalty to its clients and must treat each client fairly. When BlackRock purchases or sells securities for more than one account, the trades must be allocated in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties. BlackRock attempts to allocate investments in a fair and equitable manner among client accounts, with no account receiving preferential treatment. To this end, BlackRock, Inc. has adopted policies that are intended to ensure reasonable efficiency in client transactions and provide BlackRock with sufficient flexibility to allocate investments in a manner that is consistent with the particular investment discipline and client base, as appropriate.

(a)(3) As of April 30, 2014:

Portfolio Manager Compensation Overview

The discussion below describes the portfolio manager’s compensation as of April 30, 2014.

BlackRock’s financial arrangements with its portfolio managers, its competitive compensation and its career path emphasis at all levels reflect the value senior management places on key resources. Compensation may include a variety of components and may vary from year to year based on a number of factors. The principal components of compensation include a base salary, a performance-based discretionary bonus, participation in various benefits programs and one or more of the incentive compensation programs established by BlackRock.

Base compensation. Generally, portfolio managers receive base compensation based on their position with the firm.

Discretionary Incentive Compensation

Generally, discretionary incentive compensation for Active Equity portfolio managers is based on a formulaic compensation program. BlackRock’s formulaic portfolio manager compensation program is based on team revenue and pre-tax investment performance relative to appropriate competitors or benchmarks over 1-, 3- and 5-year performance periods, as applicable. In most cases, these benchmarks are the same as the benchmark or benchmarks against which the performance of the Funds or other

accounts managed by the portfolio managers are measured. BlackRock’s Chief Investment Officers determine the benchmarks or rankings against which the performance of funds and other accounts managed by each portfolio management team is compared and the period of time over which performance is evaluated. With respect to the portfolio manager, such benchmarks for the Fund and other accounts are: Euromoney Global Mining Index; FTSE Gold Mines Index; MSCI World Energy; DAX Global Agribusiness Index; WilderHill New Energy Index; BGR Option Overwriting Strategy Composite Index; Wilshire 5000 Modified Energy Index; Equal Weighted; BCX Overwrite Benchmark Strategy Index.

A smaller element of portfolio manager discretionary compensation may include consideration of: financial results, expense control, profit margins, strategic planning and implementation, quality of client service, market share, corporate reputation, capital allocation, compliance and risk control, leadership, technology and innovation. These factors are considered collectively by BlackRock management and the relevant Chief Investment Officers.

Distribution of Discretionary Incentive Compensation. Discretionary incentive compensation is distributed to portfolio managers in a combination of cash and BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units which vest ratably over a number of years. For some portfolio managers, discretionary incentive compensation is also distributed in deferred cash awards that notionally track the returns of select BlackRock investment products they manage and that vest ratably over a number of years. The BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units, upon vesting, will be settled in BlackRock, Inc. common stock. Typically, the cash portion of the discretionary incentive compensation, when combined with base salary, represents more than 60% of total compensation for the portfolio managers. Paying a portion of discretionary incentive compensation in BlackRock, Inc. stock puts compensation earned by a portfolio manager for a given year “at risk” based on BlackRock’s ability to sustain and improve its performance over future periods. Providing a portion of discretionary incentive compensation in deferred cash awards that notionally track the BlackRock investment products they manage provides direct alignment with investment product results.

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards — From time to time long-term incentive equity awards are granted to certain key employees to aid in retention, align their interests with long-term shareholder interests and motivate performance. Equity awards are generally granted in the form of BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units that, once vested, settle in BlackRock, Inc. common stock. Mr. Cheung has unvested long-term incentive awards.

Other compensation benefits. In addition to base salary and discretionary incentive compensation, portfolio managers may be eligible to receive or participate in one or more of the following:

Incentive Savings Plans — United Kingdom-based portfolio managers are also eligible to participate in broad-based plans offered generally to BlackRock, Inc. employees, including broad-based retirement, health and other employee benefit plans. For example, BlackRock has created a variety of incentive savings plans in which BlackRock employees are eligible to participate, including a Group Personal Pension Plan (GPPP) and the BlackRock Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The employer contribution to the GPPP is between 6% to 15% (dependent on service related entitlement) of eligible pay capped at £150,000 per annum. The GPPP offers a range of investment options, including several collective investment funds managed by the firm. BlackRock, Inc. contributions follow the investment direction set by participants for their own contributions or, in the absence of an investment election being made, are invested into a passive balanced managed fund (effective April 1, 2014, the default fund will be a target date fund that corresponds to, or is closest to, the year in which the participant attains age 65). The ESPP allows for investment in BlackRock, Inc. common stock at a 5% discount on the fair market value of the stock on the purchase date. Annual participation in the ESPP is limited to the purchase of 1,000 shares

of common stock or a US dollar value of $25,000 based on its fair market value on the purchase date. Mr. Cheung is eligible to participate in these plans.
