CII: Healthy NAV Growth And Potential To Participate In Technology Growth
CII offers an attractive value for income investors, trading at a discount to NAV and yielding 8.2% with monthly distributions. The fund's option strategy boosts income but caps upside, and its tech-heavy portfolio positions it to benefit from AI-driven growth. BlackRock Enhanced Large Cap Core Fund reliably supports its distributions with consistent earnings, though it underperforms traditional ETFs in strong bull markets.

2 Option Writing Funds Providing Attractive Distribution Yields
Covered call writing closed-end funds can offer higher distributions through option premiums, but they can also limit some upside potential. Some funds incorporate more flexible strategies to help negate some of that upside cap through overwriting only a portion of the fund. We are looking at two call writing funds today that are both looking like attractive opportunities for long-term investors at this time, based on valuation.

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.

8 Closed-End Fund Buys (And 2 Sells) In The Month Of March 2025
This month we got some increased market volatility, allowing me to put some of my cash pile to work in my closed-end fund portfolio. I also sold out of two positions, as they were starting to become on the more expensive side in terms of discounts/premiums. Adding to my positions regularly every month increases my cash flow annually, and even every month it grows.

CII: Looking Like A Tempting Opportunity
BlackRock Enhanced Large Cap Core Fund has been facing pressure due to market declines, but its current discount and market pullback present an attractive opportunity. The fund has undergone a name change and policy update and had received a significant distribution boost since our last update. The distribution increase was quite sizeable and can make it a more appealing investment choice for investors.

4 Closed-End Fund Buys (And A Sell) In The Month Of February 2025
The tech-heavy Nasdaq started to dip toward the end of February, but a strong last trading day of the month rally clawed back some of those losses. The equal-weighted S&P 500, as measured by the Invesco ETF RSP, held up reasonably well thanks to the value sectors putting up some better performance. Every month, I put some cash to work to grow my CEF portfolio income, though I've been allowing my cash pile to also grow over the last year or so.
