Every so often, the market hands investors high-yielding opportunities on a platter after throwing out the baby with the bathwater. I detail why I think there are certain BDCs that this applies to right now. I discuss the specifics of what I am looking for as well as some of my top picks of the moment.
A Roth IRA turns every dollar of yield into spendable income with no federal tax, but the portfolio size you actually need at 60 depends on which yield tier you trust with your retirement, and the tradeoffs between them are sharper than most investors expect.
Golub Capital Corp (GBDC) maintains a conservative underwriting approach, funding only 1.5% of reviewed deals with a portfolio dominated by first lien senior debt. Non-accruals have risen from 1.2% to 2.9% at cost over the past year, but most unrealized losses are expected to reverse, limiting near-term NAV pressure. GBDC's net investment spread has tightened due to increased competition, but a slowdown in private credit inflows may help stabilize or widen spreads going forward.
A Roth IRA can legally shield thousands in monthly dividend income from the IRS forever, but three surprisingly easy mistakes flip that protection into a tax bill. Do you know which common income holdings automatically trigger a tax filing requirement inside your Roth?
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Golub Capital BDC, Inc., a business development company (NASDAQ: GBDC, www.golubcapitalbdc.com) (“GBDC”), announced today that it will report its financial results for the quarter and the year ended September 30, 2026 on Tuesday, November 17, 2026 after the close of the financial markets. Golub Capital BDC, Inc. will host an earnings conference call at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on Wednesday, November 18, 2026 to discuss its quarterly financial results. All interested.
The yield you choose determines whether you need to save for a decade or three, and picking the wrong tier turns a comfortable retirement into a race against inflation you cannot win.
Three income buckets and eight holdings can close the gap between your current savings and a five-figure monthly paycheck, but the math behind each yield level reveals a trade-off most investors never think to calculate.
Pulling $154,800 a year from a portfolio sounds ambitious, but a specific eight-holding mix targeting retirees at 70 attempts to do exactly that, and the tradeoffs buried inside each position reveal just how fragile that income stream can be.
