Insights

The Fund's monthly distribution announcement reveals several key insights for investors. The $0.1250 per share distribution yields an attractive 11.14% based on market price, significantly above typical infrastructure fund yields. The distribution composition shows strong fundamentals with 71% coming from realized short-term gains and only 4% from net investment income, indicating active portfolio management.

However, the Fund's performance metrics raise concerns. The -1.04% average annual total return since inception (October 2021) suggests challenges in capital appreciation. The 5.78% cumulative total return for the current fiscal period partially offsets this, but investors should note the significant gap between distribution rate and total return, which could impact long-term sustainability.

Infrastructure investments typically serve as defensive plays with stable income streams, but MEGI's performance pattern suggests higher volatility than traditional infrastructure funds. The substantial discount to NAV ($13.46 market price vs $14.83 NAV) presents both an opportunity and a warning sign. While this 9.2% discount could attract value investors, it also reflects market skepticism about the fund's strategy or concerns about distribution sustainability.

The high distribution rate relative to both market price and NAV, combined with negative long-term returns, warrants careful monitoring. The fund's reliance on capital gains rather than investment income for distributions suggests a more aggressive strategy than typical infrastructure funds.

Any distributions in excess of the Fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated first, as a tax-deferred return of capital, which is applied against and will reduce the adjusted tax basis of shares and, after such adjusted basis is reduced to zero, will generally constitute capital gains. A return of capital distribution may lower a shareholder’s basis in the Fund, causing a potential future tax consequence in connection with the sale of Fund shares, even if such shares are sold at a loss to the shareholder’s initial investments.

The Fund will send a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will advise how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.
