mountain This closed-end fund has rallied sharply since the election. The rally is not too surprising given that Musk campaigned with the president-elect and that Tesla has also rallied sharply since the election. However, the price of the Destiny fund could give some investors pause. The latest unaudited financial report for the fund showed net asset value per share of $5.15 as of June 30. That means that the fund is now trading at a premium of roughly 700% above that valuation.
launched in March, but this isn't the first time that the fund has traded at an eye-popping premium . The fund traded as high as $105 per share during the April 8 trading session, but was back below $10 per share in August. While it is not uncommon for closed end funds to trade at a gap to their net asset value, the difference for the Destiny fund is unusually large. Additionally, it is more common for the funds to trade at a discount than a premium.
