A KFF report predicts a significant drop in Affordable Care Act (ACA) enrollment, potentially falling from 22.3 million in 2025 to 17.5 million in 2026, as pandemic-era subsidies expire. Rising premiums and deductibles are pressuring consumers, with average monthly payments increasing by 58% and deductibles by 37%. The decline is notably among those earning slightly above 400% of the federal poverty level and younger adults aged 18 to 34. Many are shifting to lower-cost bronze plans, which have higher out-of-pocket expenses.

Obamacare Meltdown? Sharp ACA Enrollment Drop Expected As Pandemic-Era Subsidies End

An analysis by KFF indicates that approximately 5 million people may lose coverage from the ACA Marketplace this year due to the expiration of enhanced premium tax credits in 2025. Enrollment has already declined for the first time in four years, with a significant drop among younger adults. Average monthly premiums have risen by 58%, exacerbating the situation. The decline in enrollment is attributed to both the expiration of tax credits and enforcement actions by CMS against improper enrollments.

The current activist situation in Closed-End Funds (CEFs) involves GAMCO Investors and Saba Capital Management, focusing on potential changes in fund discounts. GAMCO aims to place its Gabelli Utility Trust (GUT) vice-president on Saba's boards. GUT, yielding 10%, has shown strong returns but lags behind its benchmark.
