Aberdeen Or 'abrdn' - Either Way The Coverage Looks A Bit Thin
Closed-end funds offer unique advantages, like buying at discounts and leveraging with institutionally priced debt, making them ideal income-generating vehicles. Cash distributions are key contributors to total return, but it is essential to be sure they are actually covered by fund earnings. Some investors overly prioritize distribution yields, neglecting the importance of considering total return as a whole.

ASGI: Discount Widening Making This An Attraction Infrastructure Play Once Again
ASGI, a non-leveraged infrastructure-focused CEF, has experienced recent underperformance and a widening discount, but this can make it a more interesting choice. The fund's unique approach, emphasizing industrial infrastructure and private investments, differentiates it from peers, though it has higher expenses. ASGI's managed distribution policy targets a 12% payout, which may not be sustainable long-term, potentially leading to NAV erosion and adjusted payouts, but total returns can still be attractive.

ASGI: Infrastructure Play Delivers, But High Yielder Is Getting Pricey
We had previously compared ASGI to UTF and suggested the ASGI would do better. While both have delivered exceptional returns since our buy point, they have been for different reasons. We go over the setup today and tell you why it is quite different from 14 months back.

Year-End Review Of High-Yield Closed-End Funds
As a retired income investor, I focus on high-yield closed-end funds, or CEFs, for consistent monthly distributions and reinvestment discounts to grow my retirement portfolio. Significant 2024 events include distribution cuts, fund liquidations, rights offerings, and new fund launches, impacting various CEFs I own or follow. Notable CEFs like ACP, ASGI, AOD/AGD, and BlackRock funds have seen distribution increases, reorganizations, and efforts to close discounts due to activist pressure.
