Special Opportunities Fund, Inc., overseen by Bulldog Investors, LLC, operates as a closed-end balanced "fund of funds." This investment vehicle primarily deploys capital into other closed-end funds that hold positions in public equity and fixed-income securities. Its investment methodology is characterized by a blend of value-driven, opportunistic, and special situations strategies. The fund's performance is benchmarked against the S&P 500 Index. Historically, it was known as the Insured Municipal Income Fund, Inc. Formed on February 18, 1993, the fund is domiciled in the United States.
The Special Opportunities Fund trades at a deep discount that has recently gotten deeper, making it a compelling 'Buy' despite recent underperformance. SPE's portfolio is heavily weighted toward other discounted CEFs and SPACs, providing diversification, but a couple of names have resulted in muted returns so far this year. That can be important because the fund's distribution policy is based on an 8% reset, and the fund has not been keeping up with the returns needed.

NEW YORK, April 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Special Opportunities Fund, Inc. (NYSE: SPE) (the “Fund”) today announced that the Fund's Board of Directors (the “Board”) has declared the next three monthly distributions under the Fund's managed distribution plan. Under the Fund's managed distribution plan, the Fund intends to make monthly distributions to common stockholders at an annual rate of 8% (or 0.6667% per month) for 2026, based on the net asset value of $16.31 of the Fund's common shares as of December 31, 2025.
Special Opportunities Fund (SPE) and Saba Capital Income & Opportunities Fund (BRW) both offer double-digit yields and discounts but differ in income sources and risk profiles. SPE is a fund-of-funds with engineered payouts, fee layering, and uneven, event-driven returns; BRW is more aggressive, complex, and relies on activist strategies and direct income. Neither SPE nor BRW acts as a compounder; both suffer from inconsistent distributions, complexity, and lack of price appreciation, keeping them at persistent discounts.
