BOE and IGA both offer global exposure, which is relatively more attractively valued than U.S. investments at this time. Over the last decade or so, U.S. investments have outperformed, but historically, that isn't always the case.

I recently wrote two articles about "tender offers" for my Inside the Income Factory members, explaining how "activists" hope ordinary shareholders will ignore them and fail to participate. We saw a good example of this in the recent Voya Global Advantage & Premium Opportunity Fund tender offer, where scarcely more than 25% of shareholders participated.
