Welcome to the FMN (Federated Hermes Premier Municipal Income Fund) Roar Pit. Current RQD Composite is 46/100 (Roarable Sell — Underperform / Distribution Warning) in Investment Managers.

Everyone in here is repeating the bull case on FMN, but look at what you are paying: current EV/EBITDA multiples with tightening sector spreads. Unless Federated Hermes Premier Municipal Income Fund expands free cash flow yield next quarter, I would rather wait for a pullback closer to the 200-day moving average before touching this.
Looking at the 5-pillar RQD breakdown on FMN, the market is fixating on short-term headline noise in Investment Managers and ignoring the balance sheet and cash flow trajectory. At $10.47 (52-wk range $9.77 - $11.76), any beat on forward guidance forces shorts and underweight funds to chase.
