| CEF Weekly Review: The Difficulties Of High-Quality CEFs |
We review the CEF market valuation and performance through the second week of December and highlight recent market action. CEFs mostly declined this week due to a 0.25% rise in 10-year Treasury yields, with only the loan sector showing a slight NAV gain. The BlackRock Enhanced Government Fund (EGF) will merge into BlackRock Income Trust (BKT); high-quality funds like these are not ideal in CEFs. |

Stocks were up slightly as the jobs report shifted the narrative towards 'higher for longer.' The payroll report came in stronger than expected, but the narrative was that it was a hawkish report, meaning higher rates for longer. Discounts for CEFs continue to tread water, with real estate and interest rate-sensitive bond sectors performing well, while emerging market equity and convertibles performed poorly. |
