GDV: Preferred Spin-Off And Distribution Bump
Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust (GDV) announced a plan to spin-off of a new preferred-focused fund, Gabelli Preferred Securities Trust (GPS). GDV increased its monthly distribution by over 27%, from $0.11 to $0.14, marking a significant hike since 2015. Despite the distribution increase, GDV continues to trade at a sizeable double-digit discount, likely because even with the distribution increase it is still a modest distribution rate.
