Nuveen Floating Rate Income Fund yields 12.20%, trades at 8.51% discount amid recent distribution cut.

The Nuveen Floating Rate Income Fund (JFR) offers a 12.20% yield by investing mainly in floating-rate senior loans, focusing on income generation. Its portfolio is diversified with over 65% in secured senior loans and 92% rated B or higher, reducing default risk. Recently, the fund cut its distributions due to struggles covering payouts, but potential Federal Reserve rate hikes could improve income coverage. JFR currently trades at an 8.51% discount to its net asset value, slightly wider than its five-year average, suggesting potential value if rates rise as expected.
