About this fund
- Run by Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC. Part of the Nuveen fund family. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
- Size: about $486 million of holdings, as of June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- Borrowing: the fund borrows about 32% on top of its own money, as of June 30, 2026. Borrowed money makes gains and losses bigger. As of June 30, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- The fund's own example of what borrowing does: in a year in which the holdings returned -10%, a share would return about -17%; at +10%, about +12.4%. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Costs: 1% a year in management fees; 3.9% a year in total, including interest on borrowed money. Fiscal year ended Dec 31, 2025.
As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
Among the 10 funds we follow that invest in a mix of shares and bonds, 4 charge a lower management fee and 6 charge less in total, at their last yearly reports. Both numbers are measured against the fund's own money, not the money it borrows on top, so a fund that borrows more shows higher costs on both counts. - The fund's own cost example: $1,000 invested costs about $49 in the first year and about $418 over 10 years, assuming the holdings return 5% a year. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Payouts: last fiscal year (ended Dec 31, 2025) the fund paid $1.60 a share. $0.81 of that was income; $0.79 was your own money back, not income. Most funds announce their monthly or quarterly payout on their own website, not in a filing with the regulator, so a cut or a raise there does not show up here until the next yearly report. A few funds do file a notice about a fixed payout; those appear under What happened, and when. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Value of holdings per share at the last fiscal year end (Dec 31, 2025): $13.37. The shares traded at $13.61, about 1.8% above that.
As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
Over the last two years the gap (a "discount" when the price is below the value) ranged from 14.3% below to 4.1% above. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document → - How the holdings did: up 5.7% over the last three months we have (April-June 2026), before the share price is taken into account. As of June 30, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- First reported to the regulator in 2012.

- Of that, your own money back rather than income: $0.79 in the year ended Dec 31, 2025; $0.78 in the year ended Dec 31, 2024; $0.42 in the year ended Dec 31, 2023.As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Costs, including interest on borrowed money: 3.9% a year in the fiscal year ended Dec 31, 2025; 4.14% a year in the year ended Dec 31, 2024; 4.07% a year in the year ended Dec 31, 2023.As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →

- Borrowing: about 32% on top of its own money at Dec 31, 2025; 33% at Dec 31, 2024; 29% at Dec 31, 2023. From the fund's quarterly holdings reports. Original documents: Dec 31, 2025 →, Dec 31, 2024 →, Dec 31, 2023 →.
- The fund had about 27.4 million shares at Dec 31, 2025, about the same as at Dec 31, 2023.As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
What these lines mean: a payout that is your own money back, what a fund costs, borrowing.
What a holder made
- The year ended Dec 31, 2025: the shares returned +26.6%, counting payouts; the holdings +14.2%. The holdings figure is what the fund's investments earned, before the share price is taken into account. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Dec 31, 2024: the shares returned +16.1%, counting payouts; the holdings +7%. As of Dec 31, 2024, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Dec 31, 2023: the shares returned +10%, counting payouts; the holdings +9.3%. As of Dec 31, 2023, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Dec 31, 2022: the shares returned -20.8%, counting payouts; the holdings -15.8%. As of Dec 31, 2022, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Dec 31, 2021: the shares returned +29.1%, counting payouts; the holdings +17.7%. As of Dec 31, 2021, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Those five years together: the shares returned +65.3%. $10,000 of shares bought at the start (Jan 1, 2021) would have become about $16,500 by Dec 31, 2025, with every payout counted, before tax. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The holdings over the last twelve months we have, to June 30, 2026: +10.3%. The quarterly reports carry no share price, so this is the holdings alone. As of June 30, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- Of the 8 funds that invest in a mix of shares and bonds with a fiscal year ending within six months of this one, 0 reported a higher share return for that year and 7 a lower one. As of Dec 31, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- A past year says nothing about the next one. All figures are the fund's own, from its reports to the regulator.
Why the shares and the holdings can differ: the gap between price and value. Why payouts count: a payout that is your own money back.
