Summary
RMM Chart
Seeking Yields Of +7%
Use RMM and USA to gain exposure to two completely unrelated asset classes. Benefit from RiverNorth's expertise in capturing "discounts on discounts" in the municipal bond sector. Secure a 12% yield from the world's most profitable large-cap companies through USA.
RMM: It's A Cute Idea That Does Not, Quite, Work
RiverNorth Managed Duration Muni Inc Fd employs a fund-of-funds strategy targeting CEFs trading below NAV, aiming for enhanced returns. RMM's distribution yield appears attractive at 7.7%, but after adjusting for return of capital, the true yield is only 3.66%. RMM's leverage and low credit/interest rate risk positioning do not deliver superior after-tax income versus simpler municipal bond funds.
RMM: With Modest Returns And High Expenses, I'll Continue To Pass
I maintain a 'hold' rating on RMM, despite its attractive 8% yield and notable discount to NAV, due to lingering concerns from past reviews. Municipal bonds remain a core allocation for me, offering superior after-tax yields versus similarly rated corporates, especially as tax rates rise. RMM's current discount to NAV is appealing, but it's consistent with its historical range, so I don't see it as a standout bargain.
