HGLB: Solid CEF With Blended Portfolio Strategy
Highland Global Allocation Fund offers a high-yield and global diversification, but its distribution history is inconsistent and partially reliant on return of capital. The fund trades at a persistent discount to NAV, reflecting structural or performance concerns compared to higher-quality closed-end funds. HGLB's heavy exposure to interest rate-sensitive sectors and reliance on net realized gains make it vulnerable in the current high-rate environment.

HGLB: 12%-Plus Yield, 33% Discount
The Highland Global Allocation Fund is a closed-end fund investing in U.S. and international equities, fixed income, and select alternative investments for long-term growth. HGLB offers a 12.69% yield with monthly dividends but has a low 5-year dividend growth rate due to past reductions. The fund's heavy concentration in MidWave Wireless (34%) and significant exposure to real estate and energy sectors pose diversification and economic risks.

Very Bad News For Closed-End Funds
Closed-end funds offer unique opportunities due to their discount/premium mechanisms, allowing share prices to deviate from net asset value per share in a wild manner. In general, CEFs often provide diverse exposure across equity and fixed-income portfolios, and they even offer exposure to hybrid portfolios, but also allowing for sector-specific exposure. One important note is that not all premiums or discounts indicate a buying or selling opportunity; instead, it can make more sense to examine relative value over historical periods.

Closed-End Funds: Screening For Potential Opportunites To Kick Off Q1 2025
The closed-end fund space saw a significant narrowing of discounts throughout 2024 as equity markets charged higher and now discounts remain tight heading into 2025.

We are screening for funds with the deepest discounts and widest z-scores to find potential buys and funds that may be getting a bit pricey as sell candidates.
