EVF: Higher Rates May Improve Performance
Eaton Vance Senior Income Trust remains a hold as earnings have softened, but potential interest rate hikes could boost net investment income. EVF trades at a 12.19% discount to NAV, its deepest in years, which may appeal to income-focused investors seeking attractive entry points. The fund's high 7.5% yield is supported by floating-rate loans, but dividend coverage is inconsistent and vulnerable to defaults, especially in software holdings.
