THQ: 13% Yield That Captures The Growth Of The Weight Loss Market (Rating Upgrade)

I am upgrading abrdn Healthcare Opportunities Fund to a 'Buy', citing positive catalysts and an attractive yield. THQ offers a 13% yield, broad healthcare exposure, and benefits from GLP-1 market expansion, but payout sustainability is a risk. Recent NAV declines and reliance on realized gains highlight the potential for a distribution cut if earnings don't improve.

Never Cutters, Part 2: 5 More High-Yield CEFs That Have Never Cut The Distribution

I highlight five additional CEFs—BIT, BME, BST, BUI, and GLU—that have never cut distributions for at least a decade, offering high-yield, monthly income. BIT yields nearly 12% at a -6.8% discount, but declining earnings coverage and rising ROC signal caution on distribution sustainability. BME, BST, and BUI trade at discounts and have recently increased distributions, with BST delivering an 18% 10-year total return at market price.

Switching From THQ To BME Despite The Yield

The abrdn Healthcare Opportunities Fund has delivered strong historical returns but now faces sustainability concerns due to leverage, premium to NAV, and likely fee waiver expiration. THQ's 11% yield is increasingly funded by return of capital, with NAV erosion and potential distribution cuts on the horizon. BlackRock Health Sciences Trust offers a safer alternative: a 7.5% yield, a conservative distribution policy, no leverage, a lower expense ratio, and currently trades at a 5.6% discount to NAV.
