BlackRock Limited Duration Income Trust (BLW) is rated a sell due to heightened downside risks from potential interest rate hikes and heavy below-investment-grade exposure. BLW trades at a 7.78% discount to NAV, but persistent under-earning versus distributions and aggressive 38.68% leverage amplify risk in a deteriorating debt market.

BlackRock Limited Duration Income Trust is downgraded to Hold as it now trades near fair value with a diminished discount to NAV. BLW's 10% yield is attractive, but dividend coverage remains poor, with payouts exceeding net investment income and risking future cuts.

The fund's 9.77% yield is attractive, but its current distribution is not fully covered by investment income, raising concerns about sustainability. The fund is primarily invested in junk bonds and floaters, and it is unclear whether floaters will be able to deliver a positive real return over the long term.
The ongoing trade war has led to a massive increase in uncertainty and bearish sentiment. Credit spreads have widened as a result, going from their lowest levels in history, to solidly above-average. Investing in high-yield corporate bond funds seems like an easy way to profit from these changes.
