Cohen & Steers Limited Duration Preferred and Income Fund trades at a 9.2% current yield and an 11% discount. LDP has a portfolio allocation mostly to institutional preferreds, with over 70% allocated to financials like banks and insurance companies. LDP's net income has fallen by nearly 30% since its peak at the end of 2020 due to rising leverage costs, but its interest rate swap hedges have helped offset.

LDP: Internals Look Strong For This 9.2% Yielding Preferred CEF
