BlackRock runs two similar tech funds: BST, a perpetual fund with a 5.9% yield trading near NAV, and BSTZ, a term trust with a 6.2% yield trading at a 6.2% discount. BSTZ, which will dissolve around June 2031, offers a structural advantage by potentially closing its discount at liquidation, alongside higher returns (46.6% YTD vs. 31.3% for BST) and a portfolio focused more on private AI, quantum, and space tech. Investors should weigh BSTZ's higher fees and private holdings risk against its yield and discount benefits, especially in tax-advantaged accounts. BST remains a solid choice for steady income with mega-cap tech exposure, while BSTZ suits those seeking higher yield and a defined end date.
