Cogeco Inc. (CGO:CA) Q1 2026 Earnings Call Transcript

Calamos Global Total Return Fund remains a buy due to its deeply discounted 9.13% NAV, despite positive price momentum and robust 8% yield. CGO offers global diversification, blending equities, convertibles, and bonds, with top holdings in TSM, NVDA, GOOG, and MSFT, and a 31.75% leverage ratio. The fund's distributions rely entirely on net realized gains, as net investment income remains negative and vulnerable to higher interest rates.
