Closed-end funds offer unique opportunities due to the structure, which allows for the share price to swing wildly different from the underlying portfolio value.

General American Investors Company is a closed-end fund that has historically outperformed the S&P 500 Index, attracting investors despite being underfollowed and underheld. The fund primarily invests in American common equities, which may face downside risk due to capital outflows from the U.S. and overvaluation concerns. Despite its value-oriented approach, the fund holds significant positions in richly valued mega-cap technology stocks, potentially dragging down performance amid ongoing capital flight.
