13.4% Yield CEF: Despite Big Premium, Steady Monthly Income Is Compelling

If you are an income-focused investor, you’re likely familiar with Closed-End Funds (“CEFs”) because they can offer big steady dividend income.

In this report, we review the fund and then conclude with our opinion on investing.
