The performance of the VanEck BDC Income Exchange Traded Fund, which includes over 30 BDCs in its market cap-weighted index, gives a good sense of how BDCs performed in these different environments. During the rate-cutting period, which initiated the pressure on BDC profits, BDCs have had to cope with the DeepSeek AI shock, peaking just ahead of that event on 19 February 2025. With AI technologies seemingly set to destroy any potential profitability these firms had, many BDCs were suddenly faced with having to write down large portions of their portfolios. But not all BDCs are in that boat.

The BDC sector faces mounting risks: falling base rates, spread compression, and rising credit issues, driving a ~23% index drawdown in 12 months. Dividend cuts have accelerated, with 12 out of ~55 BDCs—including GBDC and GLAD—reducing payouts in the past year. Sector-wide average base dividend coverage sits at 100%, with fully leveraged balance sheets and no margin of safety.

Recent AI and mega-cap growth volatility has impacted income-focused asset classes, underscoring the need for high-quality value and reliable current income streams. I structure my portfolio for an 8–9% yield by combining core dividend aristocrats, strategic yield enhancers, and a minor allocation to tactical high-yield trades. In this article I elaborate on two tactical trade picks, where I see dislocated, abnormally high-yielding (20%+) opportunities.
