BGR is a closed-end fund that currently trades at more than an estimated 15% discount to NAV. Stellar management keeps turnover low and uses no leverage. To boost the fund's yield, management maintains a stake in limited partnerships (roughly 25% of assets as of late) and writes covered call options on up to a third of the assets in the portfolio. Given the recent selloff of such assets in connection with market turmoil, this fund provides an insanely good risk/reward opportunity for true buyers of value.
