PIMCO Municipal Income Fund II offers diversified, investment-grade municipal bond exposure with tax-exempt income, but is best suited for near-retirees seeking low-risk options.

PML trades at a decade-high discount to NAV, presenting a potential entry point for those optimistic about near-term interest rate cuts.
