JFR: Floating Rate Exposure Can Still Have A Place In A Portfolio
Floating rate funds like JFR offer decent distribution yields and should continue to do so despite expected rate cuts, as rates aren't expected to go back to zero. JFR remains relatively attractive compared to peers in the closed-end fund senior loan space, though bargain valuations are tougher to come by in this space. With a high amount of leverage, there is relatively more risk to be cognizant of here, but that can come with greater reward as well.

JFR: The 11% Yield Is Not Enough To Give A Buy
Nuveen Floating Rate Income Fund focuses on high-yielding fixed income securities, which enables the Fund to offer ~11% yield. A major driver for the double-digit yield is a significant concentration in below investment grade securities. Plus, most of JFR's investments are in floating rate instruments and the FOMC dot plot indicates a potential risk of yield compression.

JFR: Could Be A Good Asset To Add To A Retirement Account Today
The Nuveen Floating Rate Income Fund offers a significantly higher yield than most fixed-rate bond funds, currently at 11.68%. The fund primarily invests in floating-rate securities that deliver a higher level of income when short-term rates rise, while maintaining a relatively stable price. The fund's high yield may not be enough to keep up with inflation after paying taxes on distributions, so holding it in a tax-advantaged account is recommended.

JFR: Attractive Discount And Fully Covered ~12.7% Distribution Yield
JFR merged with three of its sister funds earlier this year, which were all focused on floating rates or holding a short-duration fixed-income portfolio. This combination made JFR the largest floating-rate focused fund in the closed-end fund space, larger hasn't meant necessarily better though. The fund's discount appears attractive and the distribution rate is fully covered; however, its performance has been a bit lackluster relative to some peers.

Rising Interest Rates Got You Down? Try Floating Above The Fear
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.

CEF Report August 2023: Taxables Get Bought And Are Not Very Compelling, Munis Look Best
Taxable closed-end fund discounts have narrowed, reducing their attractiveness, while credit spreads have tightened, producing returns in some areas of the CEF market. Municipal CEFs remain exceptionally cheap, with discounts wider than 99% of historical observations. The risk-reward in the taxable bond CEF space is on the downside, while the upside potential in municipal CEFs is significant, but dependent on a shift in Fed policy and inflation.
