If you're like most income investors, you're on the hunt for stocks and funds that can stand up to a storm these days. I'm talking big, 6%+ yields.
The article by Michael Foster on Forbes discusses a unique investment strategy that mimics the benefits of owning an ETF but offers significantly higher dividend yields, up to 10 times more. This strategy involves investing in closed-end funds (CEFs) which, unlike ETFs, can trade at discounts or premiums to their net asset value (NAV). Foster explains that while ETFs are popular for their diversification and lower costs, CEFs can provide higher income through dividends due to their structure. He highlights that CEFs often use leverage to boost returns, which can lead to higher dividends, but also introduces more risk. The article delves into specific examples of CEFs, their historical performance, and how they compare to ETFs in terms of yield, risk, and total return. Additionally, Foster touches on the management fees, the potential for capital appreciation, and the importance of understanding the underlying assets and the fund's strategy before investing.
