5 Best CEFs This Month For Yields Up To 15% (June 2025)
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.

GGN.PR.B: An Enticing Rates Play From This CEF
GGN.PR.B preferred shares offer a high 6.1% yield, backed by the fund's stable NAV and strong asset coverage from miners and energy equities. These perpetual preferreds act as a permanent form of capital, with high duration and significant sensitivity to interest rate movements. We see GGN.PR.B as a compelling rates play, with the potential for a +20% upside if rates fall, but -10% downside if 10-year yields rise 100 bps.

GGN: Recommend Patience And Strategic Trading
GAMCO Global Gold, Natural Resources & Income Trust is highly volatile, driven by bullish gold prices and weak oil prices. The fund's value is influenced by gold and crude oil prices, with current trends favoring gold due to geopolitical uncertainty and central bank actions.
