BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust

BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust (BMN) launched at a favorable time, avoiding the municipal bond market slide caused by rising rates. BMN is a target term fund that aims to return its NAV back to shareholders by 2037, though there is never a guarantee that can happen. The fund has only more recently started to employ leverage, as they remained patient and waited for rates to stabilize it puts them in a more favorable situation.

We take a look at the municipal sector after a rollercoaster ride. We find that longer-duration munis remain attractive, particularly relative to corporate bonds. Separately, muni CEF discounts are wide and higher-quality bonds look best.

Key Decision Factors For CEF Allocation In Today's Market

BlackRock 2037 Municipal Target Term Trust is a target term fund with the objective of returning $25 at its termination date in 2037. The BMN closed-end fund is a defensive Muni CEF option owing to its lack of leverage (subject to change), duration profile and term structure. BMN has a decent chance of hitting its $25 NAV target in 2037.

In 2021, a dozen closed-end funds, or CEFs, were launched, but none of them performed well, with all of them experiencing negative total returns since inception. The CEFs trade at wide discounts to NAV, with an average discount of -12.5%, and offer high yield income with annual yields as high as 12.9%. The hybrid funds with global allocations and higher yielding taxable fixed income funds have performed better than municipal fixed income funds and equity funds.
