In this monthly series, we highlight five CEFs with solid track records that pay high distributions and offer “excess” discounts.

GGN: Still Has Some Room To Run
GAMCO Global Gold, Natural Resources & Income Trust offers growth potential with a portfolio focused on energy and mining stocks, benefiting from rising gold and oil prices. The fund's quarterly report shows a strong position in energy (33.5%) and mining/gold (55%), despite minor losses in key holdings like Barrick Gold and Newmont Corp.
