Guggenheim Strategic Opportunities Fund Stock News

For those who adopt a dividend strategy, having a “thermometer” with which to measure the real performance of our stocks is an immense advantage. This thermometer is NAV, a simple line on a graph that anyone can observe and understand without the need for calculations or interpretations. If it grows over the years, it means that the security earned its distributions: if it goes down, it means t...

Recent developments have made the yield from the Guggenheim Strategic Opportunities Fund appear more attractive than the PIMCO Corporate and Income Opportunity Fund.
