EOI: Attractive Distribution And Track Record, But Shallow Discount Persists

Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund was one of the equity-focused EV closed-end funds that did not cut its distributions in 2022. EOI has a strong track record and has outperformed the S&P 500 Index since our last update despite its covered call strategy. Thanks to avoiding a distribution cut in 2022, the fund has enjoyed a steady or higher distribution for over a decade, though it will naturally require capital gains to fund.

5 Best CEFs This Month For 9% Plus Yield (September 2024)

For income investors, closed-end funds remain an attractive investment class that covers various asset classes and promises high distributions and reasonable total returns. Closed-end funds, or CEFs, are generally characterized by higher volatility and deeper drawdowns than the broader market. For these reasons, they are not suited for everyone. In this monthly series, we highlight five CEFs with solid track records that pay high distributions and offer "excess" discounts. We try to separate the wheat from the chaff using our filtering process to select just five CEFs every month from around 500 closed-end funds.

EOI: Good Performance, But Diversification Leaves A Lot To Be Desired

Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund offers an 8.23% yield, balancing income and inflation protection by investing in equities and using a covered call strategy. The EOI fund's recent performance has been strong, with a 23.34% share price appreciation since November 2023, nearly matching the S&P 500. Despite its high yield and performance, the fund is heavily weighted in a few mega-cap tech stocks, raising diversification concerns.
