Gladstone Investment: A Higher Risk BDC With Upside

  • I'm overweighting Gladstone Investment for its equity-driven returns, benefiting from a strong stock market and potential $1B+ investment portfolio milestone. GAIN's unique equity orientation and first lien focus position it for outperformance versus peers, especially as market conditions remain favorable. High non-accrual ratio is a risk, but resolving these could boost net investment income, improve dividend coverage, and enhance margin of safety.
