NMZ: Still Waiting For A Better (Cheaper) Entry Point

  • NMZ offers high current income exempt from regular federal tax, making it attractive for income-focused investors in higher tax brackets. While I have recommended it in the past, I view its premium to NAV and use of ROC as negatives right now. The backdrop for munis as a whole is positive, but I will stay away from funds like NMZ that favor junk-rated credit in favor of higher quality.
