Triple-Factor Closed-End Fund Report, August 2025 (Stanford Chemist)
I use a systematic 'Triple-Factor' screen to identify CEFs with high yield, strong coverage, and discounts to NAV for optimal risk/reward. Top candidates offer yields above 7.5%, coverage above 90%, and trade at discounts, providing both income and potential capital appreciation. While Highland Opportunities and Income (HFRO) scores highly, I view it as speculative due to past controversies, despite activist involvement as a potential catalyst.

HFRO: Forget The Common, Get 8% A Yield From The Preferreds
When management teams embark on a grand new journey, it's essential to have common shareholder buy-in. If the vision isn't readily received, it can cause issues in the company's public performance. But income investment opportunities remain. We show ways to align better than management's goals, all while getting paid.

Income-Covered Closed-End Fund Report, June 2025
I focus on CEFs with 100%+ distribution coverage, as this suggests lower risk of distribution cuts and more sustainable income for investors. My top screens highlight funds with the deepest discounts, highest yields, and most attractive z-scores, offering both income and potential price appreciation. Blackstone Strategic Credit 2027 Term Fund (BGB) stands out for its 8.9% yield, 104% coverage, and discount-driven alpha as it nears expiration.
