CEF - Gold, Oil, Copper and Silver


That brings me to the GAMCO Global Gold, Natural Resources & Income Trust (GGN). The closed end fund currently trades under $4.00, despite the sum of its parts being valued above this level. GGN gives investors a 9.9% annual distribution and taps into various natural resources and mining giants. 

Investors will get access to Newmont Corporation, Franco-Nevada, Barrick Gold, and Rio Tinto (RIO) on the gold mining side. On the energy side, the fund owns Exxon Mobil (XOM), Chevron (CVX), and Shell. Materials comprise 41.6% of this fund, while oil and gas represent 34% of the portfolio. This is a little riskier than traditional methods, but investors can profit from the combination of the near 10% yield and 6.4% discount to NAV. 

These giants are a good hedge against inflation and the oil companies are pushing into renewals as well.

The general consensus is that higher rates should lead to lower inflation. This means the 2-year inflation expectations in the market should be declining as the Fed gets more aggressive, but as Lisa Abramowicz pointed out this morning, inflation expectations in the market have actually been increasing over the last 6 months.
