STK: Premium-To-NAV Normalized
The Columbia Seligman Premium Technology Growth Fund has delivered 28.3% returns since July 2023 but underperformed the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices. STK's underperformance has been due to its premium-to-NAV normalizing. Looking forward, with premium-to-NAV normalized, now may be a good time to own the STK fund. However, for me personally, I worry that today's hype surrounding 'AI investments' has reached bubble-like proportions, and is prone to sharp drawdowns.

How I Plan To Invest $700,000 To Pay Bills With Dividends Forever
A portfolio of $700,000 is large enough to produce an annual dividend income that matches the national average individual income of $64,000. I prioritize high-yield investments like BDCs, REITs, MLPs, and option ETFs to achieve a substantial income stream, accepting less capital appreciation in exchange for higher income. A diversified portfolio of 15 holdings, including tech-heavy funds and income-focused assets, can replace a job income, providing financial security and flexibility.

5 Best CEFs This Month For 8.5% Yield (November 2024)
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.

STK: A Technology Equity Fund With Call Overwrite, A 5.5% Yield And Solid Growth
STK is a closed-end fund that primarily invests in high-growth technology stocks and utilizes call overwrite to reduce volatility and generate income. Besides high growth potential, currently, the fund yields nearly 5.5%, making it a good investment for income investors. Besides moderate income, the past growth record has been excellent. We would rate the fund as a 'hold' for existing owners and a 'buy' for new investors as a diversification in the technology space. However, the new buyers should use dollar-cost-averaging to avoid the risk of buying near the top.
