For income investors, closed-end funds remain an attractive investment class that covers various asset classes and promises high distributions and reasonable total returns.

In this monthly series, we highlight five CEFs with solid track records that pay high distributions and offer "excess" discounts. We try to separate the wheat from the chaff using our filtering process to select just five CEFs every month from around 500 closed-end funds.

GAM's portfolio mimics the S&P 500 but with only 70 stocks, focusing on NAV growth and a 5% distribution yield. The current market conditions and GAM's stretched valuation metrics prompt us to downgrade the fund from 'Buy' to 'Hold'.
