Quick Take
"The fund delivered strong outperformance of 3.90% in Q3 and tactically reduced CEF exposure below 60% to front-run seasonal tax-loss harvesting discounts."
Executive Summary
The Robinson Tax-Advantaged Income Fund (ROBNX) outperformed its benchmark in Q3 2025, returning 3.90% against the Bloomberg 1-10 Year Muni Index's 2.21%. The core portfolio action this quarter was a defensive reduction in tax-exempt CEF exposure to under 60% (down from close to 100%) to mitigate expected losses from seasonal retail tax-loss harvesting. The manager plans to reinvest capital back into CEFs once discounts widen by an expected 3% to 5%. More broadly, the manager is highly cautious on mainstream equities and corporate bonds due to frothy valuations and tight credit spreads.
