PCN: Interest Rates And Inflation Likely To Pressure Bonds And Bond Funds
The PIMCO Corporate & Income Strategy Fund offers a high yield of 10.05%, primarily due to its use of leverage, making it attractive for income-focused investors. The PCN closed-end fund's recent performance has been disappointing due to rising inflation expectations, leading to a 4.75% decline in share price since early October. The Federal Reserve's hawkish stance and inflation concerns suggest bond prices may fall further, posing a challenge for the fund's future performance.

My 9.5% Income Portfolio CEFs And Classic Cars
Closed-end funds are special income vehicles, with many positive aspects and just as many weaknesses that take time to be properly understood and evaluated. I discovered their existence about ten years ago, and over time, I became convinced of their worth by developing a personal method of selection based mainly on NAV performance. This is an analytical, data-driven approach which I then extended to other types of securities in my portfolio, namely ETFs and BDCs.

My portfolio includes CEFs, ETFs, a few BDCs and an ETN, for whose selection I have developed over the years a criterion based mainly on NAV performance.

PCN: Inflation Brings Downside Risks
PIMCO Corporate & Income Strategy Fund offers a high yield of 9.44%, outperforming peers and providing substantial income for investors. Inflation poses risks to bond funds like this one, potentially impacting the fund's future performance and distribution sustainability. Long-term interest rates rose last week, which could suggest that the market is starting to doubt the "victory over inflation" narrative.

PIMCO Update | Sept 2024 | Muni Coverage Jumps (Maybe), Taxables See Significant ATM Benefit
The best taxable closed-end funds are PHK, PFN, and at slightly cheaper valuations, PDI and PCN; best munis are PMF, NY funds, and PCK in CA. Distributions are safe due to funds monetizing premiums via at-the-market offerings, supplementing net investment income. Coverage ratios for muni CEFs may be overstated; future UNII reports will clarify the impact of new leverage costs.
