Why Shares of Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund Crashed Today
Shares in the Brookfield Real Assets Income Fund (NYSE: RA) were down by a whopping 20% as of midday Wednesday. The plunge was triggered by the board of directors declaring that the fund was slashing its monthly distribution. The previous monthly payout of $0.199 per share will be repeated in September, but from October onward, it will drop to $0.118 per share -- a nearly 41% cut.
