SRH Total Return Fund Inc

SRH Total Return Fund, Inc. operates as a non-diversified, closed-end management company. It primarily invests in domestic common stocks, warrants, corporate bonds, the United States treasury bills and repurchase agreements. The firm seeks to produce both income and long-term capital appreciation by investing in a portfolio of equity and debt securities. Boulder Growth & Income Fund is headquartered in Denver, CO.

Boulder Growth & Income Fund is a closed-end, non-diversified fund with a total return investment goal. The Fund uses a bottom-up, value-driven investment strategy to find stocks of elevated companies that are selling below their estimated intrinsic value in order to meet its objective. Finding investment possibilities that will offer appealing returns over a lengthy holding period is the objective of this procedure.

STEW is attractive due to its 20%+ discount, low-cost fixed leverage, and 4% distribution yield, despite underperforming the S&P 500 recently. The fund's NAV is understated due to accounting rules, with a potential $41.7 million higher NAV if fair market value of senior notes is used. Share repurchases at significant discounts have been accretive to NAV, but the large Horejsi family holdings limit fund activism.

SRH Total Return Fund is a concentrated equity fund with heavy bets on Berkshire Hathaway and other value-oriented stocks. The fund has underperformed mightily in recent months, primarily due to a widening discount to NAV, which is currently at a historically wide 22%. This historically wide discount to NAV creates a wide margin of safety for investors. So I am raising STEW to a relative buy.

The SRH Total Return Fund is an equity-oriented closed-end fund with a large cap value tilt and a significant holding in Berkshire Hathaway. STEW has access to low-cost fixed leverage below 3%, giving it an advantage over other closed-end funds that pay higher variable cost leverage. The fund's net asset value (NAV) may be understated due to the way closed-end funds compute NAV when there are senior notes or preferred stock in the capital structure.
