Investors should note that a portion of these distributions may be a return of capital, as the funds have estimated that they have distributed more than their income and net realized capital gains. This means that some or all of the money invested in the funds may be paid back to investors.
Closed-end funds often trade at a discount to their net asset value, which may affect investor returns. The market price of fund shares may vary based on factors such as distribution rates relative to similar investments, investors' expectations for future distribution changes, the clarity of the fund's investment strategy, and investors' confidence in the underlying markets.
It is important for investors to consider the fund's investment objective, risks, charges, and expenses before making an investment decision. Past performance is no guarantee of future results, and investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate.
