Closed-End Funds: Screening For Potential Opportunities To Kick Off H2 2025
We closed out the first half of 2025, making it an appropriate time to give the overall CEF space a fresh look for potential opportunities. As the broader equity indexes have been performing quite well, discounts in the CEF space have narrowed overall. The best relative value more broadly is in the municipal bond space and the "hybrid" funds.

CLM: 18% Monthly Yield Not For Sustainable Income Investors
CLM offers a unique high-yield distribution strategy, appealing to income-focused investors. The fund sustains its payouts by issuing new equity above NAV, which is accretive and helps maintain asset stability. Over five years, CLM delivered ~89% total returns with a 20% average yield, closely tracking the S&P 500's performance.

Cornerstone Total Return Fund: CEF With High Monthly Distributions
I rate CRF a Hold for income-focused investors, given its high yield but declining share price and dividend over time. The fund trades at a significant premium to NAV, but the DRIP allows reinvested dividends to be purchased at NAV, offering a discount advantage. CRF underperforms the S&P 500 in total return, and its distributions are largely return of capital, risking long-term capital erosion.

Cornerstone Strategic Investment Fund: A Solid Investment With Some Minor Flaws
I am initiating coverage of Cornerstone Strategic Investment Fund with a buy rating for its consistent, high income and solid long-term returns. CLM closely tracks the S&P 500, offering diversified exposure to large-cap stocks, and boasts a forward yield near 20%. Unique features include dividend reinvestment at NAV and tax advantages, though the aggressive payout policy risks NAV erosion in weak markets.

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.

Cornerstone CEF Rights Offerings Are Back
Cornerstone Strategic Investment Fund and Cornerstone Total Return Fund announce 1-for-3 rights offerings, allowing shareholders to subscribe for new shares at a premium to NAV. The rights offerings are accretive to NAV per share, benefiting existing shareholders, but market prices typically drop during the offering period due to increased selling pressure. Investors can either sell shares before the ex-rights date to avoid price drops, or participate in the offering if the premium to NAV is above 12%.
