Goldman Sachs BDC: Price Drop Creates An Attractive Buying Opportunity
I maintain my buy rating on Goldman Sachs BDC due to its strong dividend coverage, diverse portfolio, and attractive valuation despite recent price declines. GSBD's portfolio is well-constructed, with a focus on first lien senior secured debt. Earnings currently support the 14.7% dividend yield, making it appealing for income investors. The higher interest rate environment has impacted GSBD's portfolio quality, but non-accrual rates have improved, and management continues to invest in new opportunities.

Goldman Sachs BDC: This Is Not A BDC You Want To Have Now
In December 2023, I issued my first relatively bearish article on GSBD. The argument was that GSBD lacked the financial firepower to grow. Since then, GSBD has underperformed the BDC market by ~20%.

Goldman Sachs BDC: Contrarian Buy Near 1-Year Lows (Rating Upgrade)
Goldman Sachs BDC's non-accrual percentage has improved, and shares now trade at a discount to book value, presenting a contrarian buying opportunity. Despite increased non-performing loans, Goldman Sachs BDC's dividend remains well-supported by net investment income, with a coverage ratio of 1.29X in Q3'24. The investment firm's reliance on variable rate loans poses a risk, but the dividend appears secure unless non-accrual loans increase or net investment income drops significantly.

13+% Dividend Yields: 1 To Buy And 1 To Avoid
My portfolio focuses on high-yielding stocks, as they are ideal components of an opportunistic capital recycling strategy. That said, not all high-yield stocks make for good investments. I share one stock with a dividend yield of over 13% that I would avoid right now.

BDC Weekly Review: Key Q3 Earnings Trends
We take a look at the action in business development companies through the second week of November and highlight some of the key themes we are watching. BDCs were flat this week in aggregate, outperforming other income sectors, with PSEC and TPVG bookending month-to-date returns. Q3 earnings reveal a slight decline in net investment income due to rate cuts, tight market spreads, and refinancing into higher coupon debt.
