Highland Opportunities and Income Fund (HFRO) announced a new $100 million, two-year share repurchase program, with $20 million to be used immediately. This move, alongside activist investor Saba Capital's involvement, aims to create a price floor and reduce the discount to the fund's net asset value (NAV). However, HFRO's portfolio, heavily invested in illiquid real estate assets, poses risks as buybacks reduce portfolio size and increase concentration. Despite strong recent performance, cautious optimism remains, with a focus on trading opportunities around discount fluctuations and buyback activity.
