Description: BLE BlackRock MIT II December 27, 2025
BlackRock Municipal Income Trust II (NYSE: BLE) is a closed-ended, tax-exempt fixed-income fund launched on July 30 2002 and managed by BlackRock Advisors, LLC. The fund primarily holds investment-grade municipal bonds-both long- and short-term-as well as money-market securities, aiming to generate federally tax-free income for shareholders.
Key metrics as of Q3 2024 show BLE managing roughly $1.2 billion in net assets with an expense ratio near 0.78 % and a distribution yield of about 5.2 % (annualized). Its average portfolio duration sits around 5 years, making it moderately sensitive to changes in short-term interest rates, while the broader municipal bond market is driven by state-level fiscal health, supply of new tax-exempt issuance, and the prevailing federal-tax environment.
If you want a data-rich assessment of BLE’s price-discount dynamics and distribution sustainability, ValueRay’s platform offers a convenient deep-dive tool for further analysis.
