Volatility in the closed-end fund, or CEF, market has recently increased, while tight discounts create a point of vulnerability for the market. We discuss various strategies investors can use to make their CEF portfolios more resilient to take advantage of future draw-downs. These strategies include focusing on likely CEF distribution changes, seeking funds with wide discounts, considering term CEFs, and riding sidecar with CEF activists.

Ideas For Managing CEF Discount Volatility

Shrinking yield spread, economic slowdown, and rising recession risks, prompting a downgrade of SHDY from Strong Buy to Buy. SHDY remains a Buy for its 8.06% yield and portfolio diversification. Management and term-based liquidation offer some resilience amid uncertainties. Macro backdrops warrant caution on high-yield bonds currently sitting at high price levels. Consider funds with reduced risk for high-yield bonds investors.

PGIM Short Duration High Yield Opportunities Fund is a fixed income closed end fund from Prudential, focusing on shorter duration high yield bonds. The fund's performance has been disappointing, lagging behind peers and trading at a large discount to NAV due to poor timing in the market. SDHY needs a multi-year credit bull market to potentially improve its performance and narrow the discount to NAV, making it a less attractive option currently.
