BCAT: Elevated Yield May Not Last Much Longer

BlackRock Capital Allocation Term Trust offers a high 22.1% yield by blending equities and fixed income, but faces sustainability concerns. BCAT's distributions exceed its earnings, relying heavily on net realized gains, making current payouts likely unsustainable as NAV continues to erode. Management increased payouts to narrow BCAT's discount to NAV, but a significant dividend cut is expected once the discount closes.

BCAT: 22% Yield, But Falling Payouts

BlackRock Capital Allocation Term Trust offers a balanced mix of equities and fixed income, but recent portfolio shifts and declining distributions raise concerns.

Time To Sell The BlackRock Capital Allocation Term Trust Despite Its 22.75% Yield

BCAT's discount to NAV has dramatically narrowed, removing a key catalyst for further upside and making the fund less attractive for discount-driven investors. The sustainability of BCAT's extremely high 22.75% distribution is questionable, increasing the risk of a future distribution cut. A growing allocation to private (Level 3) investments introduces valuation and liquidity risks, which could pressure the discount if distributions outpace returns.
