Private Credit Is Making Investors Nervous. Here's Why Main Street Capital Still Commands a Premium.
Main Street Capital has a couple of additional value drivers.
Overview
The private credit market has been in the financial news a lot this year. Investors are worried that more borrowers will default on their loans following a string of high-profile bankruptcies in the sector. That's causing them to pull funds from private credit investments, including business development companies (BDCs).
Main Street Capital (NYSE: MAIN) hasn't been immune to these concerns. The BDC stock has lost about a quarter of its value from its 52-week high. Despite that, it still trades at a significant premium to its net asset value (NAV). Here's why investors continue to pay a premium for this BDC.
