Ellington Credit Company is a high-risk credit option, but can serve its purpose for yield enhancement in a diversified portfolio. Its build-out with CLOs, and particularly equity CLOs introduces risk at this stage of the credit cycle, but could act as a yield kicker in the longer term. EARN is recycling on RMBS, where its recent unrealized losses could be offset by entering into newer high-coupon agency RMBS.

Ellington Credit's transition to a CEF was well-timed, preserving book value and enabling opportunistic CLO acquisitions at attractive prices. The fund's low leverage, risk-adjusted yield focus, and shareholder-friendly fee structure support its tactical appeal despite sector headwinds. Recent gains and tighter credit spreads make EARN less attractive fundamentally, but its wide discount offers an upside for tactical investors.
