CHY: Expensive And Riskier Than Would Be Expected From A Bond Fund
The Calamos Convertible & High Income Fund offers a high yield of 11.73%, higher than domestic convertible and junk bond indices, appealing to income-oriented investors. Convertible bonds, less volatile than stocks, provide downside protection and upside potential, making them suitable for risk-averse investors, including retirees. The fund's recent underperformance is due to its high leverage and significant exposure to the underperforming technology sector, despite its overall potential for reduced volatility.

5 Best CEFs This Month: Average Yield Of 10% (February 2025)
For income investors, closed-end funds remain an attractive investment class that covers various asset classes and promises high distributions and reasonable total returns. Closed-end funds, or CEFs, are generally characterized by higher volatility and deeper drawdowns than the broader market. For these reasons, they are not suited for everyone. In this monthly series, we highlight five CEFs with solid track records that pay high distributions and offer "excess" discounts. We try to separate the wheat from the chaff using our filtering process to select just five CEFs every month from around 500 closed-end funds.

CHY: Well-Positioned, But Extremely Expensive
Calamos Convertible & High Income Fund offers high-income and equity market exposure, making it attractive for yield-seeking investors. The CHY closed-end fund's 10.69% yield is competitive, though not the highest in its category, and its performance has been strong, especially over the past five years. CHY is overweight convertible bonds, which is very good for protection against inflation.
