| Income isn’t super easy to come by these days. The S&P 500 yields just 1.3%, close to a record low, and the 10-year U.S. Treasury note yields about the same. But there are pockets of the market still offering a competitive payout, such as business development companies (BDCs). I like to joke that BDCs are as close to Main Street America as Wall Street ever gets. BDCs provide debt and equity financing to “middle market” companies that: - Have grown a little too big to get by on bank loans.
- But aren’t quite big enough to issue stocks or bonds of their own.
Think of them as the bridge between a mom-and-pop company and a proper enterprise. And one of my favorite BDCs is a buy now. It yields 5.9% and pays out monthly with bonus semiannual paychecks as well. Click here to see why this “Bullish” BDC makes my income shortlist.

Chart of the Day
One of the Federal Reserve’s primary goals is to minimize inflation. It tries to meet that goal by managing the amount of circulation and using interest rates to help define the investment environment. Right now, interest rates are low. That should encourage businesses to invest in their operations. Low rates make it attractive to borrow money for new equipment or facilities that can boost sales. As much as it tried to regulate the economy — for example, by raising rates — the Fed doesn’t control businesses or consumers, the ones purchasing, borrowing, and investing. It’s creating a self-fulfilling prophecy that you can see in the chart below. Click here it see what the Fed’s greatest fear is — and why it’s coming true.
