Templeton Emerging Markets Income Fund (TEI)

Financial Services | Asset Management | San Mateo, United States | NYSE
6.69 USD +0.06 (0.903%) ⇧ (April 17, 2026, 11:42 a.m. EDT)
Short-term: ★★★☆☆ | Long-term: ★★☆☆☆ | Dividends: ★★★★☆
Hot Take | April 11, 2026, 4:28 p.m. EDT

TEI exhibits a relatively stable dividend yield of 8.93%, with consistent monthly distributions, making it appealing for income-focused investors. However, the recent price history shows a mixed trend with a slight decline over the past 14 days, indicating potential short-term volatility. The stock's low beta (0.717) suggests it is less volatile than the market, but the recent price movement and high short interest (short ratio of 1.92) suggest caution. For long-term investors, while the fundamentals are somewhat stable, the high debt-to-equity ratio (20.336) and low current ratio (0.312) raise concerns about liquidity and financial health. Overall, TEI could be considered a moderate buy for income-focused investors, but it's not ideal for long-term growth.
