KIO: No Assurance From Future Dividend Trims
KKR Income Opportunities Fund yields nearly 11% but also has a history of gradual dividend cuts. KIO invests in high-yield corporate securities and leveraged loans, which are below investment-grade or unrated, which tend to earn higher coupons.

The fund's recent performance has been poor, with a 9.46% share price decline since October 2024, underperforming both investment-grade and junk bonds. The fund's portfolio appears to have shifted back to floating-rate securities at a time when the Fed is cutting rates.

Betting On Corporate America To 'Muddle Through' Whatever Lies Ahead

The KKR Income Opportunities Fund offers a high yield of 9.88%, outperforming its peers and providing investors with substantial current income. Potential concerns include the Federal Reserve's dovish stance, which could reduce the fund's income going forward.
