OXLC Stock Recent News

We take a look at the action in preferreds and baby bonds through the first week of October and highlight some of the key themes we are watching. Preferred stocks saw slight declines as Treasury yields rose, but year-to-date returns remain strong, outperforming REITs and BDCs. Lower-priced preferreds offer better capital gain potential and are more attractive due to lower negative convexity compared to higher-priced counterparts.

OXLC's 20% yield is intriguing but has not proved to hold out over time. The fund's diversified portfolio and modest leverage offer some stability, but this also comes with exposure to cyclical risks. Historical dividend cuts during COVID and the cyclical nature of CLO equity highlight the potential for capital loss and unreliable income.

Oxford Lane Capital offers a high dividend yield above 20%, making it attractive for income-focused investors. OXLC's portfolio strategy focuses on high current income from CLO debt and equity, with significant growth in fair value over the last year. Interest rate cuts may reduce net investment income short term but can improve borrower strength, reduce defaults, and create new investment opportunities.

Oxford Lane Capital has outperformed the S&P 500 by +1.94% since my last 'Sell' view on this closed-ended fund in February 2024. But I am retaining my stance. Distributions continue to be funded by capital raises instead of operational cash flow. I don't see how this is sustainable long term. Oxford Lane Capital investments' fair value is below cost, which means the sale of investments would also lead to a loss. This does not help recoup negative operating cash flows.

Oxford Lane Capital (OXLC) is having a good year as it continues beating the S&P 500 index. Its stock has risen by 7.49% while the S&P 500 index has jumped by 18.13%.

We review CEF market valuation and performance through the second week of August and highlight recent market action. CEFs were mixed, with MLP funds recovering while REIT funds struggled. The CEF, High Income Securities Fund, is implementing a novel strategy to get its initiatives approved by shareholders.

I've always been enthusiastic about the power of dividend stocks to generate wealth over time. You might be surprised to learn that some of the most promising opportunities come with price tags under $10 per share.

I bet on America this year in January; let's see how that bet has paid off. Oxford Lane Capital Corporation has raised its distribution and sees growing income without amping up leverage. OXLC dissenters abound, but year-to-date returns speak for themselves.

The largest holdings in my Income Compounder portfolio include CLO CEFs OXLC, ECC, OCCI, and CCIF. CLOs have grown into a $1.2 trillion asset class, offering attractive equity tranches with double-digit returns and bond-like cash flow. OCCI and OXLC offer high monthly distributions, with OXLC reporting strong core NII exceeding distributions and potential for further increases.
