PIMCO CEF Update: Muni CEF Coverage Mystery Is Solved, Sort Of
PIMCO Muni CEF distribution coverage levels have sharply fallen to around 80%, correcting previously inflated figures likely due to calculation errors. Taxable PIMCO CEFs delivered strong returns, with PAXS and PDO benefiting from the CMBS market recovery, and PGP supported by its equity sleeve.

PFL: Foreign Exposure Is Nice, But Distribution Coverage Remains Weak
The PIMCO Income Strategy Fund offers an attractive 11.18% yield, close to its peer group median, appealing to income-focused investors. The fund's performance since December 2023 has been mixed, with a 6.07% increase in share price but significant volatility, which may concern some investors. Unlike some peers, this fund holds some foreign currency bonds, which may be better than an all U.S.-dollar-denominated portfolio.
