BCX: Gold Exposure Is Nice But Declining NAV Is Not
The BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust offers high income and low volatility through a covered call-writing strategy, appealing to risk-averse investors. The fund's 6.50% yield outperforms similar sector index funds, making it attractive for income-seeking investors despite underperforming the S&P 500. The fund has added a gold producer to its largest positions, which is very nice considering that gold is positioned to deliver a strong performance for quite a while.

BCX: High Fees And Underperformance
Diversifying away from the tech-heavy S&P 500 can be achieved through energy and materials, but BCX's high fees and underperformance make it a poor choice. BCX's covered call strategy often leads to underperformance, failing to provide significant downside protection and capping upside potential. XLE and GLD are recommended for passive exposure to natural resources, offering better performance without management risk or high fees.
