Eric Boughton, chief analyst at Matisse Capital -- a firm that manages portfolios of closed-end funds -- says that outsized discounts make most closed-end funds attractive potential investments now, noting in this interview from 'Money Life with Chuck Jaffe' that nearly every type of fund represents assets currently on sale. Still, Boughton notes that discounts by themselves are not a reason to buy, saying investors need to understand leverage and assets before taking a chance on higher-risk areas like master limited partnerships and more.
