FUND: Looking More Tempting As Discount Widens, But Not A Bargain Yet
Sprott Focus Trust has a unique tilt towards the materials sector, with significant holdings in energy and financial services as well. The fund's discount has widened, making it relatively attractive on a shorter-term relative basis, but on a longer-term basis, it looks to be relatively fairly valued. FUND pays out a quarterly distribution based on 6% of its NAV, with net investment income coverage moving materially higher in the latest report.

5 Best CEFs To Buy This Month (July 2023)
For income investors, closed-end funds remain an attractive investment class that covers a variety of asset classes and promises high distributions and reasonable total returns. Closed-end funds, or CEFs, are generally characterized by higher volatility and deeper drawdowns than the broader market. For these reasons, they are not suited for everyone. In this monthly series, we highlight five CEFs with solid track records, pay high distributions, and offer "excess" discounts. We try to separate the wheat from the chaff using our filtering process to select just five CEFs every month from around 500 closed-end funds.

Sprott Focus Trust: Interesting Portfolio Offering A Managed ~6% Distribution Rate
Sprott Focus Trust is a unique closed-end fund with a value-oriented portfolio and a focus on the materials sector. The fund has outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index, in the short and long term, but its current discount is not very appealing. Investors should consider FUND for diversification but wait for a better entry point with a wider discount.
