Fair price, seven ways
Not shown for closed-end funds and BDCs. The methods assume operating profit, and a fund’s earnings per share are capital gains on its portfolio plus interest income — running them through Graham or a discounted cash flow produces a number that looks like a valuation and means nothing. What matters for a fund is its price against net asset value, which this site does not track.
