RYE, New York, Feb. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Board of Trustees of The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust (NYSE:GDV) (the “Fund”) approved the continuation of its policy of paying fixed monthly cash distributions. The Board of Trustees declared cash distributions of $0.15 per share for each of April, May, and June 2026.

GDV.PR.H preferred stock offers a higher yield and superior credit quality versus IGLB, making it a compelling income choice.

IGLB provides broad investment-grade bond exposure and monthly income but carries greater risk in severe market downturns.

The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust preferred shares (GDV.PR.K, GDV.PR.H) offers a rare Aa3 Moody's rating and stable yields near 6%. In today's volatile market, GDV preferreds provide higher certainty and lower credit risk than bank preferred shares with comparable yields. Both GDV.PR.K and GDV.PR.H trade below par, outperform peers on spread-to-treasury, and offer cumulative distributions to investors.

RYE, N.Y., Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Board of Trustees of The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust (NYSE:GDV) (the “Fund”) increased the annual distribution to $1.80 per share, which will be paid $0.15 per share monthly, commencing with the January 2026 monthly distribution. The $0.15 per share monthly rate is a 36% increase from the $0.11 per share monthly rate in 2024. The increase reflects the strength of the Fund's NAV total return of 16% year to date.

Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust offers a 6.2% yield and monthly payouts, appealing to income-focused investors seeking portfolio stability. GDV's recent price rally has reduced its discount to NAV, prompting a downgrade from buy to hold, due to less attractive valuation. While GDV provides diversified exposure to high-quality equities, it relies on net realized gains for distributions, which may underperform broader markets over time.

By now, it's glaringly obvious: AI is replacing workers. And it's boosting corporate bottom lines as it does.

I'm shifting focus to high-quality preferred stocks, especially GDV.PR.K and GDV.PR.H, as common stocks appear overvalued. GDV's preferred shares offer stable income, high credit ratings (Aa3 from Moody's), and strong risk-return balance for conservative investors. GDV is a well-managed closed-end fund with a strong performance record, outperforming both the S&P 500 and its peers.
