5 Best CEFs This Month For Yields Up To 13% (July 2025)
For income investors, closed-end funds remain an attractive investment class that covers various asset classes and promises high distributions and reasonable total returns. Closed-end funds, or CEFs, are generally characterized by higher volatility and deeper drawdowns than the broader market. For these reasons, they are not suited for everyone. In this monthly series, we highlight five CEFs with solid track records that pay high distributions and offer "excess" discounts. We try to separate the wheat from the chaff using our filtering process to select just five CEFs every month from around 500 closed-end funds.

PEO: Energy And Materials Equities CEF (Rating Upgrade)
PEO offers a stable, covered distribution and low leverage, making it a reliable vehicle for extracting dividends from energy and materials equities. While a simple XLE/XLB ETF blend outperformed PEO, the fund's narrowing discount to NAV and structural stability support our revised rating. Retail investors seeking a one-stop-shop for inflation hedging may find PEO's 0.65% expense ratio justified, despite cheaper ETF alternatives.

Two Alternatives For A Potential $5000 Monthly Income
Traditionally, a large portion of equity returns has come from two factors - reinvested dividends and compounding. We present two income-focused approaches: a fund-based portfolio for hands-off investors and a stock-plus-ETF portfolio for active investors. Both strategies target a 6% income yield, capital preservation, and inflation-beating growth, but differ in maintenance ask and risk profiles.

PEO: A Closed-End Oil And Gas Fund Now Yielding 10.5%
With a 10.5% yield and trading at an 11.3% discount, the PEO fund appears to be a very attractive investment opportunity. The fund's top holdings include Exxon Mobil, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips, which provide strong dividends but face macroeconomic uncertainties. Despite strong recent performance, the oil market has recently entered a down-cycle based on global economic concerns and a significant oil supply/demand imbalance.
