BDCs face earnings pressure from lower base rates, but fears of severe dividend cuts are overstated. Quite many BDCs have several levers to pull in order to absorb ~100 bps of base rate cuts without touching their dividends. Yet, I would say that the non-accrual risk is understated.
The December Dividend Power list identifies 35 high-yield stocks, with 14 offering 'safer' dividends backed by free cash flow yields exceeding dividend yields. Top actionable picks include Annaly Capital, Barings BDC, Noah Holdings, Blue Owl Capital, and SLR Investment, all meeting the dogcatcher ideal for safety and value.
