BDC Dividend Cut Storm Likely Ahead
High-income investors face limited options for sustainable, high-yield investments, with traditional asset classes often highly correlated and yields rarely exceeding 7-9%. Business Development Companies (BDCs) offer attractive yields averaging 12.8%, with several high-quality players maintaining dividends even through challenging periods like COVID-19. However, rising interest rates pose a significant risk to BDC dividend sustainability, making it critical to reassess current exposures and avoid potential value impairments.

2 Picks For Monthly Distributions And Participating With Activists
Closed-end funds offer unique opportunities due to the structure, which allows for the share price to swing wildly different from the underlying portfolio value. There are activist groups that specifically target these in a way to take advantage of this feature within the closed-end fund space. On top of that, it also provides significant diversification by investing in already diversified CEFs, and additionally, this can translate into strong monthly distributions.

Despite concerns over declining book value and high Payment in Kind (PIK) income, CION trades at a steep 0.72 price-to-book discount.
