CGO: U.S. Dollar And Economic Strength Could Drag On Foreign Stocks
The Calamos Global Total Return Fund offers a high yield of 8.47% but has not managed to deliver the strong performance as its domestic-only version. Despite its lower yield compared to peers, the fund's recent performance shows potential, though its international diversification may be a near-term headwind due to a strong U.S. dollar. The fund employs significant leverage (35.27%) to boost returns, but this also increases risk and volatility, making it less appealing for risk-averse investors.

CGO: Revisiting This Fund Following The Election
The Calamos Global Total Return Fund yields 8.23% but has underperformed the MSCI World Index, making it less appealing for core portfolio positions. The fund's recent performance has been disappointing, with a 1.17% share price increase, underperforming both the S&P 500 and MSCI World Index. The United States may be poised to outperform foreign markets over the next year or two, yet this fund appears to be decreasing its U.S. exposure.

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.

In this article, however, I decided to focus on the price of each security in my portfolio, comparing it with the lows and highs touched throughout its history. An overview of the path each one has taken from launch to current market quotation with a personal assessment of the possible room for maneuver from those values.
