PFLT
PFLT still offers monthly BDC income. But after the dividend reset, the question is different: whether the new payout leaves enough room for NAV discipline, credit losses, leverage, and joint-venture growth.

The Fed did not give markets a path. It gave them a fork. For BDC investors, the old higher-for-longer trade is splitting into two stories: income and credit.
Private Credit
AI infrastructure is becoming physical enough to finance against. The key question is whether data-center leases, equipment, receivables, and power contracts can produce reliable cash flow.
Private Credit
The AI boom is not only a chip story. It is a capital-formation story built on power, land, leases, collateral, private credit, asset-backed finance, and long-duration underwriting.
Private Credit

Private Credit
Private credit is not collapsing in one dramatic moment. The stress is moving through redemption gates, borrower cash flows, dividend coverage, and trust in private loan marks.
