The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust remains a hold, offering a 6.2% yield and trading at a 12.26% discount to NAV. GDV's distributions are well covered by earnings, but reliance on net realized gains limits capital appreciation and increases vulnerability in downturns. The fund's moderate leverage (14.35%) and sector allocations, especially to financials and software, can amplify downside risk amid market uncertainty.
We review the CEF market valuation and performance through the second week of May and highlight recent market action.
