BKLN: Leveraged Loans Face More Than Just Interest Rate Risk

BKLN offers a high 7.55% yield and strong diversification but invests mainly in below-investment-grade, short- to medium-term leveraged loans. Rising default risks, lower interest rates, and increased competition in the leveraged loan market could pressure yields and impact future distributions. A potential Fed rate cut in September 2025 may lower yields on new loans, reducing BKLN's income potential going forward.

BKLN: Not A Buy Ahead Of Likely Rate Cuts

BKLN remains a Hold as I anticipate imminent Fed rate cuts, which will likely reduce future income from floating-rate loans. Distributions have declined in line with expectations, reflecting the impact of 2024's rate cuts and portfolio turnover, though recent payments have rebounded slightly. The portfolio's credit quality is stable, but maturities have shifted longer, and most holdings yield in the mid-to-upper single digits.

BKLN: The Case For Leveraged Loans Today

Leveraged loans offer high yield, short duration, and better risk-adjusted returns compared to junk bonds, making them attractive in today's volatile interest rate environment. BKLN provides exposure to leveraged loans, with a 7.00% yield, 0.10-year duration, and a B+ average credit rating. Given current economic uncertainties, an overweight position in leveraged loans is warranted for better risk/reward, despite credit risks.
