BOE: Still Overly Exposed To USA (Rating Upgrade)

BlackRock Enhanced Global Dividend Trust (BOE) offers high current income via a covered call strategy, with an 8.49% yield and global equity exposure.

5 Closed-End Fund Buys In The Month Of May 2025

The market saw a strong continuing recovery in May from April's market drop. The rebound was enough to see the drop recover entirely that was seen in April, but the markets still remain off all-time highs seen in February. While there wasn't as much in terms of opportunity for buying as there was in April, I add to my CEF positions every month regardless.

This month we got some increased market volatility, allowing me to put some of my cash pile to work in my closed-end fund portfolio.

4 Closed-End Fund Buys (And A Sell) In The Month Of February 2025

The tech-heavy Nasdaq started to dip toward the end of February, but a strong last trading day of the month rally clawed back some of those losses. The equal-weighted S&P 500, as measured by the Invesco ETF RSP, held up reasonably well thanks to the value sectors putting up some better performance. Every month, I put some cash to work to grow my CEF portfolio income, though I've been allowing my cash pile to also grow over the last year or so.
