Calamos Investments Announces Monthly Distributions for Closed-End Funds in September 2026
Calamos Investments has announced monthly distributions and the sources of those distributions for its seven closed-end funds, including Calamos Convertible Opportunities and Income Fund (CHI), Calamos Global Total Return Fund (CGO), and others. The distributions are set to be paid on September 21, 2026, with record and ex-dividend dates both falling on September 14, 2026. The distribution sources for several funds indicate that the payments in September will primarily come from short-term capital gains rather than ordinary income or return of capital. For example, Calamos Global Total Return Fund (CGO) is distributing $0.09 per share entirely from short-term capital gains. The year-to-date data shows a mix of sources across different funds. For two additional closed-end funds operating under a managed distribution policy—Calamos Strategic Total Return Fund (CSQ) and Calamos Long/Short Equity & Dynamic Income Trust (CPZ)—the distributions are largely attributed to return of capital, with CPZ's September 2026 payment being entirely from this source.
