BlackRock Science and Technology Trust offers strong AI exposure and 10.6%+ income yield with discounted NAV.

BlackRock Science and Technology Trust (BST) remains an attractive investment by providing direct stakes in leading AI companies like Anthropic, Databricks, and Anduril. The fund trades at a 3.93% discount to its net asset value (NAV), with private valuations for Databricks and Anthropic not yet fully reflected, suggesting potential upside. BST's removal of its options writing strategy has accelerated NAV growth, allowing it to fully benefit from the AI-driven capital expenditure cycle. Additionally, BST offers robust monthly distributions with a 2026 income yield exceeding 10.6%, including a special distribution, supporting a positive outlook for shares above $50.
