JQC Rights Offering Underway - Here's What To Do

  • Nuveen Credit Strategies Income Fund's 1-for-5 rights offering has a subscription price based on the higher of 90% of NAV or 95% of the average closing price. The "higher of" condition prevents a vicious cycle of discount widening, effectively creating a discount floor and limiting how wide the discount can get. Investors should not subscribe if JQC's discount widens beyond -10%, as it would be cheaper to purchase the fund on the open market.
