Cornerstone Total Return Fund: CEF With High Monthly Distributions — Neutral

CLM  CRF   Seeking Alpha — July 04, 2025

I rate CRF a Hold for income-focused investors, given its high yield but declining share price and dividend over time. The fund trades at a significant premium to NAV, but the DRIP allows reinvested dividends to be purchased at NAV, offering a discount advantage. CRF underperforms the S&P 500 in total return, and its distributions are largely return of capital, risking long-term capital erosion.
