CGO: Discounted Valuation Makes Entry Here Attractive

CGO currently trades at an attractive discount to NAV, offering a compelling entry point for long-term investors. The fund's high 8.2% yield and global diversification make it appealing for income-focused portfolios, despite recent inconsistent earnings. Performance has been suppressed by high interest rates and less efficient leverage, but rate cuts could be a strong catalyst for recovery.

CGO: International Exposure A Plus, But Tech Exposure Weighs On Performance

The Calamos Global Total Return Fund offers a 9.23% yield, higher than major equity and bond indices, making it attractive for income investors. Despite its high yield, the fund underperforms its peers and major indices, partly due to its significant U.S. tech exposure and leverage. The fund's allocation to global assets and convertible securities aims to balance income and volatility, but recent performance has been disappointing.

CGO: U.S. Dollar And Economic Strength Could Drag On Foreign Stocks

The Calamos Global Total Return Fund offers a high yield of 8.47% but has not managed to deliver the strong performance as its domestic-only version. Despite its lower yield compared to peers, the fund's recent performance shows potential, though its international diversification may be a near-term headwind due to a strong U.S. dollar. The fund employs significant leverage (35.27%) to boost returns, but this also increases risk and volatility, making it less appealing for risk-averse investors.

CGO: Revisiting This Fund Following The Election

The Calamos Global Total Return Fund yields 8.23% but has underperformed the MSCI World Index, making it less appealing for core portfolio positions. The fund's recent performance has been disappointing, with a 1.17% share price increase, underperforming both the S&P 500 and MSCI World Index. The United States may be poised to outperform foreign markets over the next year or two, yet this fund appears to be decreasing its U.S. exposure.

My 9.5% Income Portfolio CEFs And Classic Cars

Closed-end funds are special income vehicles, with many positive aspects and just as many weaknesses that take time to be properly understood and evaluated. I discovered their existence about ten years ago, and over time, I became convinced of their worth by developing a personal method of selection based mainly on NAV performance. This is an analytical, data-driven approach which I then extended to other types of securities in my portfolio, namely ETFs and BDCs.

My 9.5% Income Portfolio-Fifty Shades Of Blue

My portfolio includes CEFs, ETFs, a few BDCs and an ETN, for whose selection I have developed over the years a criterion based mainly on NAV performance. In this article, however, I decided to focus on the price of each security in my portfolio, comparing it with the lows and highs touched throughout its history. An overview of the path each one has taken from launch to current market quotation with a personal assessment of the possible room for maneuver from those values.

My 9.5% Income Portfolio-The View From The Top

Total Return is a percentage measure reflecting the total performance of a fund, incorporating both capital gains and the effect of dividends reinvested over a specific period. Net Asset Value is the value of an investment fund, determined by subtracting liabilities from assets. The fund's per-share NAV is found by dividing NAV by number of shares outstanding. A positive Total Return with a negative NAV performance creates dissonance in my opinion, whereas having both values positive gives a favorable indication of the quality of a fund.
