CLM: This 15% Yielder Is Not On Sale, But It's Still A Buy
CLM offers a high 15% yield and has outperformed the S&P 500 recently, but its long-term performance shows significant underperformance since inception in 1989. The fund's portfolio is heavily equity-focused, featuring major US tech companies, and includes a mix of closed-end funds, common stocks, and ETFs. CLM's premium has surged to around 25%, posing a risk for investors who may overpay; careful consideration of time horizon and risk tolerance is advised.

How I Plan To Invest $700,000 To Pay Bills With Dividends Forever
A portfolio of $700,000 is large enough to produce an annual dividend income that matches the national average individual income of $64,000. I prioritize high-yield investments like BDCs, REITs, MLPs, and option ETFs to achieve a substantial income stream, accepting less capital appreciation in exchange for higher income. A diversified portfolio of 15 holdings, including tech-heavy funds and income-focused assets, can replace a job income, providing financial security and flexibility.

PIMCO Cuts A Couple Of Distributions, Who Could Be Next?
RCS and PCM recently announced distribution cuts, and they were simultaneously trading at some hefty premiums to their NAV per share. We saw the usual outcome, which is a drastic sell-off as is often the case with the dangerous combination of elevated NAV distribution rates and premiums are mixed. We are looking at two more names to warn about in the future, but predicting distribution cuts is incredibly difficult as funds can pay out what they'd like.

A Guide To Responsibly Use Margin Debt To Amplify Dividend Income
Margin debt can be a strategic tool for wealth building, similar to traditional debt, if used responsibly and with proper safety buffers. Suggested rules include having a solid financial foundation, avoiding consumer debt, maintaining stable income, and limiting margin to 10% of portfolio value. Avoid speculative bets with margin; instead, focus on income-producing assets that can outpace the cost of debt, such as high-yield dividend funds.

CLM: The Premium Works In Your Favor (Upgrade)
Cornerstone Strategic Value Fund (CLM) offers a high dividend yield of over 15% by holding traditional equities, unlike other high-yielding funds relying on option strategies. CLM's dividend reinvestment at NAV provides an instant capital gain, making it attractive despite a high premium to NAV. The fund's heavy reliance on net realized gains and technology sector exposure poses risks, particularly in down markets,.

Year-End Review Of High-Yield Closed-End Funds
As a retired income investor, I focus on high-yield closed-end funds, or CEFs, for consistent monthly distributions and reinvestment discounts to grow my retirement portfolio. Significant 2024 events include distribution cuts, fund liquidations, rights offerings, and new fund launches, impacting various CEFs I own or follow. Notable CEFs like ACP, ASGI, AOD/AGD, and BlackRock funds have seen distribution increases, reorganizations, and efforts to close discounts due to activist pressure.
