PPT: Multisector Bond CEF, 8.6% Distribution
PPT is a multisector CEF with low leverage, primarily exposed to mortgages and high-yield corporates, offering dynamic portfolio management in today's environment. The fund is conservatively positioned with a significant cash allocation and low duration, reducing rate sensitivity but still exposed to tight corporate spreads. PPT trades at a -4% discount to NAV, near the top of its historical range, and its high distribution rate is not fully covered by income.
