4 Stocks That Yield 12% and Higher Are Passive Income Kings
Investors love dividend stocks, especially those with ultra-high yields, because they provide a substantial passive income stream and offer significant total return potential.

FS KKR Capital: At 81 Cents On The Dollar And 14.4% Dividend Yield Is Not A Buy
FS KKR Capital is trading at a 19% discount to NAV but faces slipping net investment income coverage of its base and supplemental dividend. FSK's net investment income covers only 97% of its base dividend, with the inclusion of a supplemental payout leading to a ramped-up erosion of NAV. Pending Fed rate cuts and rising nonaccruals, around 5.3% of the portfolio at cost, threaten the sustainability of FSK's current base dividend distribution.

FS KKR Capital: 20% NAV Discount, Re-Pricing Catalyst, High Yield
FS KKR Capital's non-accrual percentage increased sharply in Q2, leading to weaker net interest income and the BDC under-earning its dividend. Shares now trade at a 20% discount to net asset value, offering potential upside if credit performance improves. Dividend coverage has deteriorated, raising the likelihood of supplemental dividend suspension while management focuses on restoring credit quality.

It's All Downhill For Most BDCs, Here Is My Approach
Q2 earnings confirmed my call for a market rotation in BDCs; quality bias and selectivity remain critical for outperformance. Structural headwinds—spread compression, falling base rates, and thin dividend coverage—signal elevated risk of further dividend cuts across the sector. Current sector repricing is insufficient for broad new BDC allocations; most remain unattractive except for select names with strong fundamentals.

One Fed Governor Wants 3 Rate Cuts – Buy 4 Ultra-High-Yield Stocks Right Now
During the July meeting of the Federal Reserve, both Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both of whom were Trump appointees, voted against the central bank's decision to leave interest rates unchanged — the first time two governors have dissented on a monetary policy decision in a single meeting since 1993.

FS KKR Capital: The Cracks Are Becoming Too Large To Ignore (Rating Downgrade)
I am downgrading FSK to sell due to persistent NAV declines, rising non-accruals, and weakening dividend coverage. FSK's net investment income no longer fully supports its high 15.6% yield, forcing reliance on spillover income to fund distributions. Portfolio stress is evident from increased non-accruals and shrinking new investment activity, exacerbated by the prolonged high interest rate environment.

FS KKR: Large Realized And Unrealized Losses, Downgrading To Hold
I am downgrading FS KKR Capital to neutral due to deteriorating NAV, NII, and rising non-accruals, which now threaten the sustainability of its dividend. Q2 saw significant realized and unrealized losses, with four portfolio companies added to non-accrual status, sharply impacting financial metrics and investor confidence. Despite these setbacks, FSK remains diversified, well-capitalized, and trades at a steep discount to NAV, offering potential value if trends reverse.

Dividend Cut Alert: 2 BDCs With Unsustainable Yields
BDC sector faces significant risks: high valuations, spread tightening, and thin dividend coverage leave little margin of safety. Lower base rates will likely be soon here, creating further headwinds for BDCs and pressuring net investment income and dividends. I recommend avoiding speculative BDCs, focusing on high-quality names with robust portfolios and strong dividend coverage at a discount.
