The fund invests mostly in junk debt, and the credit quality of its portfolio appears to be falling.

Invesco Senior Income Trust is a successful fixed-income closed-end fund with an outstanding total return since last year. VVR holds mostly first lien loans and has a well-covered distribution standing at 88% on a fiscal year basis. The fund's premium to NAV is a concern, expected to decrease when the Fed starts cutting rates, impacting both distributions and premium.

Achieving long-term "equity returns" generally requires holding tight through periods of volatility.

Interest rates are likely to remain elevated due to the strong U.S. economy, despite inflation concerns. The U.S. debt has reached a record high, and fears of a government shutdown are exacerbating market concerns. Investing in CEFs that hold floating rate senior loans can provide a high yield income stream that benefits from rising interest rates.

Invesco Advisers, Inc. Announces Increase in Monthly Distribution for Invesco Senior Income Trust

The high inflation rate in the US is causing financial strain for Americans, leading to desperate measures such as dumpster diving and pawning possessions. Investors can combat the rising cost of living by investing in closed-end funds that specialize in generating income. The Invesco Senior Income Trust is one such fund that offers a current yield of 11.94% and has a stable performance track record.

VVR: A Decent CEF For An Uncertain Rate Environment, But Finances Are Questionable

Invesco Senior Income Trust has performed well in 2023, with a flat NAV and a high dividend yield. VVR is currently paying a 12% yield, which is fully covered and is expected to be supported in 2023 as rates remain higher for longer. The fund's discount to net asset value has been extremely volatile in 2023, mainly driven by market expectations around a Fed pivot.

VVR: Getting Behind This Year's Performance For This 12% Yielding CEF

The VVR fund is a senior loan-focused closed-end fund. It pays a 13.1% fully-funded forward yield but only earns 3-5% average annual total returns.
