Start 2021 right - a focus on sustainable income

Start 2021 right with a focus on sustainable income! Despite the pandemic, our closed-end fund model portfolios have grown their incomes in 2020, without adding new capital or stretching for yield.

Our focus on sustainable income and not chasing yield is what has allowed our portfolios to (1) grow their total return value, (2) avoid overpriced funds, and (3) side-step unexpected distribution cuts, which are frequently accompanied by significant drops in the share price causing both income and capital losses to investors.

Here are just two examples from the last year:

Tortoise Energy Independence Fund (NDP):

The third biggest loser in premium was Tortoise Energy Independence Fund (NDP), which lost -5.79% in premium last week. The catalyst was the massive -77% distribution cut, from $0.4375 to $0.10 per share, which we predicted in our Weekly Roundup two weeks ago:

The Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Income Fund (EDF) and Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Total Income Fund (EDI):

This article was released to our members during market hours on April 22 warning them to sidestep the announcement (or short) the funds in anticipation of a possible cut. After the market closed, EDF announced a -53% reduction in distribution, from $0.17 to $0.08 per month, while EDI announced a -47% reduction in distribution, going from $0.1511 to $0.08 per month.

Current portfolio yields

These are our current portfolio yields:

• Income Generator portfolio: 8.10% yield
• Tactical Income portfolio: 7.55% yield
• Taxable Income portfolio: 5.79% yield (with a focus on tax-free/tax-advantaged income)

Note that the above yields are with all three portfolios having between 6-8% in cash, ready to take advantage of opportunities when they arise.
