GRX: There Are Better Alternatives In The Healthcare CEF Sector
The Gabelli Healthcare & WellnessRx Trust is an underperforming equity closed-end fund (CEF) focused on healthcare stocks. GRX has a -19% discount to net asset value, but has traded at very substantial discounts for the past five years. The fund employs a 27% leverage ratio, which has hampered its performance in 2023.

GRX: Modest Healthcare Fund Trading At A Steep Discount
The Gabelli Healthcare & Wellness Rx Trust seeks to provide capital gains and income from a portfolio of healthcare and wellness-focused stocks. The fund pays an attractive 6.1% distribution yield that is well funded by its long-term 5-7% total returns. However, compared to peer funds, the GRX fund has much higher expenses, lower total returns, and higher portfolio volatility. I would personally seek healthcare exposure elsewhere.
