Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund offers global equity exposure and high income, which should be good for income-focused investors who need inflation protection. The fund invests primarily in equities, historically good for preserving purchasing power against inflation. The fund appears to have made a few profitable trades recently, including a position that profited from Apple's gain over the past two months.

CHW: Buy This Fund Before It Hikes Its Distribution

METRO CHICAGO, Ill. , June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Calamos Investments®* has announced corrections to monthly distributions and sources of distributions paid in June 2024 to shareholders of its seven closed-end funds (the Funds) pursuant to the Funds' respective distribution plans.

CORRECTION: Calamos Investments Closed-End Funds (NASDAQ: CHI, CHY, CSQ, CGO, CHW, CCD and CPZ) Announce Monthly Distributions and Required Notifications of Sources of Distribution

Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund offers high-income and geographic diversification, without sacrificing equity exposure. The fund's distribution yield of 9.00% is lower than its peers, but it has delivered strong recent performance and total return. The fund's portfolio includes numerous low-yielding securities, so it relies more on capital gains than we might think.

CHW: Very Impressive Recent Performance Could Result In Distribution Increase

Calamos is known for its convertible bond research. Together with high-yield bonds, Calamos offers a number of CEFs that include both in their portfolios. But ironically, it's the pure fixed-income CEFs that trade at premium valuations, while their more balanced equity and fixed-income CEFs trade at discounts. One would think in a raging bull market, that it would be the other way around, but that's not the case.

CHW Is The Best Opportunity Among The Calamos Funds

Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund offers a high current yield of 11.49%, making it attractive for income-seeking investors. The CHW closed-end fund's recent market performance has been disappointing, with a decline of 11.07% since the date that we last discussed it. The fund's asset allocation is heavily weighted towards common stocks, which may not align with its objective of providing current income.

CHW: Imperfect, But Not A Horrible Global Fund

The rapidly rising cost of living is a major problem for the average American, with prices increasing dramatically. The Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund offers a 10.27% yield, providing a high level of income for investors. The fund's focus on both domestic and international assets helps diversify portfolios and reduce exposure to the United States.

CHW: This 10.27%-Yielding CEF Provides Much Needed Foreign Exposure

Calamos Global Dynamic Income Fund's portfolio is a closed-end fund composed of large-cap equity stocks, high-yielding non-investment grade bonds, investment grade bonds, convertibles, etc. Over the past 5 years, CHW's major equity holdings delivered positive price growth, and most of them grew at a CAGR in excess of 6.5%.

CHW: A Diversified Global Balanced CEF Generating Consistent Strong Yield

With the S&P 500 Index up a stunning +5.5% yesterday off a soft CPI report, there's a feeling that a new bull market may be getting underway. That may be a bit premature and there will certainly be starts and stops along the way even if the worst of the bear market is behind us.

CHW: Equity CEFs, Time To Go Risk On?

CHW is a hybrid CEF that has both an equity and fixed income allocation. The fund has very robust long-term results, with the 5- and 10-year trailing total returns sitting at 11.7% and 10%, respectively.

CHW: Global Equities/Fixed Income CEF, ~10% Yield

A reader requested that I evaluate CHW. Its yield of 7.6% looks attractive provided the distribution can be sustained. I continue my series where I look beyond the yield of a CEF with a look at CHW.
