The Hidden Value in Closed-End Funds

from The Value Investing Podcast with Fexingo: Buffett, Graham, and Long-Term Stock Picking · host Fexingo

This episode of The Value Investing Podcast with Fexingo explores the overlooked opportunity in closed-end funds (CEFs). Lucas and Luna discuss how CEFs can trade at significant discounts to net asset value, creating a margin of safety for value investors. They examine the recent surge in risk-free Treasury yields and how that has pushed CEF discounts wider, offering potential bargains. The hosts walk through a specific example: a municipal bond CEF yielding 6.2% with a 12% discount to NAV. They also touch on the risks, including leverage and management fees. With the Fed funds rate flat at 3.64% and bond investors hunting for better opportunities, CEFs present a compelling case study in patience and discipline. No stock-picking, no momentum—just classic value investing in a wrapper most people ignore. #ClosedEndFunds #ValueInvesting #CEFs #MarginOfSafety #NAV #DiscountToNAV #MunicipalBonds #BondInvesting #TreasuryYields #FedFundsRate #Leverage #ManagementFees #PassiveInvesting #ActiveManagement #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Finance #LongTermInvesting Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
