CPZ: 4 Reasons Why I Would Avoid This CEF

  • Calamos Long/ Short Equity & Dynamic Income Trust is a complex and high fee fund which offers investors exposure to equities, preferred stock, and fixed income. CPZ has delivered weak risk-adjusted performance, underperforming both the S&P 500 and peer long/short funds while exhibiting higher volatility. The fund is tax-inefficient which makes it less attractive for taxable investors compared to other products.
