BMEZ: This Healthcare Fund Is Paying Out More Than It Earns
BlackRock Health Sciences Term Trust (BMEZ) exposes investors to life science companies but the performance has been flawed since inception. The fund writes options against its holdings, which helps amplify income levels but makes it difficult for the fund to participate in capital appreciation. BMEZ offers a high dividend yield of 14.2% but the fund is paying out more than it actually earns.

Why I Moved On From BMEZ Despite A 14.2% Yield (Rating Downgrade)
BlackRock Health Sciences Term Trust's discount to NAV has narrowed sharply, eroding the original deep-value thesis and making the risk/reward profile less attractive. BlackRock's tender offer and increased distributions successfully closed the discount, but future activist pressure is now limited due to Saba's standstill agreement. The fund's high 14% yield is appealing but unsustainable, as it relies on return of capital rather than underlying earnings, especially in biotech.

7 Closed-End Fund Buys (And 4 Sells) In The Month Of April 2025
April's market volatility, driven by tariffs and led by tech sector declines, created opportunities to deploy cash. However, it was an opportunity to reposition my portfolio as well, with 2 swap trades to de-risk my portfolio. There were 2 corporate actions in the last month that also saw two more positions removed from my CEF portfolio, but overall, I was a net buyer for the month.
