FTF: Discount Widens With Headwinds, Keeping It A 'Hold'

Franklin Limited Duration Income Trust delivers high current income via a diversified, limited-duration fixed-income portfolio, now trading at a -9.04% discount. FTF faces headwinds from declining rates, compressing net investment income, and widening the distribution coverage gap, risking future NAV erosion. Despite an attractive yield and growing discount, I maintain a 'Hold' rating, preferring a wider discount before entry.

FTF: Discount Narrows, Making This Fund Even Less Appealing

Franklin Limited Duration Income Trust offers diversified fixed-income exposure, focusing on high-yield corporate bonds and bank loans to limit duration risk. FTF's recent strong share price returns are primarily due to discount narrowing, not underlying portfolio outperformance, making the current valuation less attractive. The fund's switch to a fixed monthly distribution helped narrow the discount, but payout coverage remains weak, making continued NAV declines likely.
