Despite rising Treasury yields, the Muni sector continues to outperform as the current market dislocation hits lower-quality sectors harder. We take a look at a number of misconceptions held by some CEF investors, especially regarding PIMCO vs. Nuveen funds. We continue to find th...
CEF discounts continue to meander without direction for most of the last few months (outside the mid-May one-week swoon). In terms of valuations, senior loans are the cheapest, followed by Limited Duration and Global Income. High yield and Investment grade round out the top 5 cheapest...
Muni CEFs have taken quite the beating this year and discounts have widened out - though not nearly as much as I would have expected. NAVs have stabilized as rates have started to come back down from cycle highs. The 10-yr hit 3.2% in early May and now sits at 2.74%. Muni CEF valu...
1 out of 23 CEF sectors positive on price and 0 out of 23 sectors positive on NAV last week. Volatility brings CEF rotation opportunities. Examples of three (non-portfolio) swaps. For further details see: Weekly Closed-End Fund Roundup: Volatility Brings CEF Rotation Opp...

Rating agencies reported that upgrades outpaced downgrades in 2021. The decline in the stock market produced concern that pension funding may decline, and the rise in inflation may reduce benefits. The shorter bonds can be sold to take advantage of large outflows from mutual funds...
Munis are giving us a chance to own them again at some compelling discounts relative to long-term valuations. Today's valuations are in the bottom 20% of all observed data points going back to 1996. Thus, only 20% of the time have discounts been wider. However, when you compared c...
