Tired of Sticky Inflation? Try This High-Income ETF
When it comes to taming inflation and getting it back down to a more approachable threshold, the Federal Reserve was already facing a difficult challenge. Inflation was proving to be stickier than expected, and the central bank was seeing its independence challenged by the federal government.
Seeking Yield? Look No Further Than Closed-End Fund ETFs
For investors looking to foster more income in their portfolios, closed-end fund (CEF) ETFs can be a strong option. Unlike open-end funds, closed-end funds won't need to repurchase shares from investors.
CCEF: Significant Diversification And Decent Results So Far
Calamos CEF Income & Arbitrage ETF offers high monthly income by investing in a diversified portfolio of income-producing closed-end funds. This fund-of-funds approach provides significant diversification in one investment, as the exposure ends up being spread across a diverse group of different assets and sectors. The ETF has a higher total expense ratio, primarily driven by the underlying CEF expenses; still, they've been able to deliver some solid results.

Overview
The fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF) that primarily focuses on generating high current income and pursuing long-term capital appreciation. It operates under the management of Calamos Advisors LLC, with a unique investment strategy that targets unaffiliated closed-end funds. These are selected based on their potential to offer significant income opportunities and arbitrage possibilities, especially when they trade at appealing discounts. The fund's investment approach includes a strong preference for investing in both U.S. and non-U.S. closed-end funds, committing at least 80% of its net assets to such investments. Despite its concentrated investment strategy, it is categorized as non-diversified, allowing it to make more significant investments in a smaller number of closed-end funds to achieve its objectives.
