CCD: Convertibles Can Leverage Equity Exposure, Time To Buy The Dip

The Calamos Dynamic Convertible and Income Fund offers equity-like exposure via convertible and corporate bonds, appealing to risk-tolerant investors seeking differentiated returns. CCD has experienced a -9.5% decline from its February 2026 high, driven by equity market volatility and global supply chain disruptions from the Iranian war.
