Real inflation hit 5%+. 12% + 5% = 17% purchasing power gone. And it's happening again this year. And next year. And the year after that. The people who understand this are already moving. In a free presentation I just recorded, I'm revealing what we call "The 2026 AI Gold Rush." The ONE AI-linked asset class the U.S. government has no choice but to fuel… and BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, and 170 public companies are already positioning into it. The same strategy that delivered 12,480% for Mastercard investors since its 2006 IPO. Sitting idle isn't "playing it safe." It's the most expensive decision you'll make this decade.Watch the free presentation (and see how to stop the purchasing power bleed) →GBDCGolub Capital BDC4/17/2026Initiated Coverage$13.63$15.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIFSKFS KKR Capital4/6/2026Lower Price Target$10.56$13.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIPSBDPalmer Square Capital BDC3/5/2026Lower Price Target$11.28$12.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIMSDLMorgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund3/5/2026Lower Price Target$15.02$16.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIMFICMidCap Financial Investment3/5/2026Lower Price Target$10.70$11.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIMFAMFA Financial3/5/2026Boost Price Target$10.22$11.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIBXSLBlackstone Secured Lending Fund3/3/2026Lower Price Target$24.08$28.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIFSKFS KKR Capital2/27/2026Lower Price Target$10.98$15.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIARESAres Management2/24/2026Lower Price Target$116.84$173.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROICNNECannae2/24/2026Lower Price Target$11.76$16.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIOBDCBlue Owl Capital2/20/2026Lower Price Target$11.26$13.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROITSLXSixth Street Specialty Lending2/20/2026Lower Price Target$18.34$22.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROISAFESafehold2/20/2026Boost Price Target$15.66$18.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIVCTRVictory Capital2/10/2026Boost Price Target$74.25$84.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIVOYAVoya Financial2/9/2026Boost Price Target$75.87$87.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIARCCAres Capital2/9/2026Lower Price Target$19.31$22.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIARESAres Management2/9/2026Lower Price Target$132.87$180.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIOMFOneMain2/6/2026Boost Price Target$62.70$73.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIAPAMArtisan Partners Asset Management2/6/2026Lower Price Target$45.06$50.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIAAMIAcadian Asset Management2/6/2026Boost Price Target$51.28$54.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROINLYAnnaly Capital Management2/5/2026Boost Price Target$23.10$25.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIFHIFederated Hermes2/3/2026Reiterated Rating$53.22$55.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIAMPAmeriprise Financial2/2/2026Reiterated Rating$531.50$605.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIAGNCAGNC Investment1/29/2026Boost Price Target$11.85$13.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIIVZInvesco1/28/2026Lower Price Target$27.69$33.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIIVZInvesco1/21/2026Upgrade$27.90$35.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIMAINMain Street Capital12/9/2025Lower Price Target$61.90$66.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIMSDLMorgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund11/26/2025Reiterated Rating$17.21$18.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIOBDCBlue Owl Capital11/26/2025Lower Price Target$12.87$14.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIMSDLMorgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund11/26/2025Downgrade$17.10$18.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIPSBDPalmer Square Capital BDC11/26/2025Downgrade$12.23Hold$0.0000.00% ROIPSBDPalmer Square Capital BDC11/25/2025Reiterated Rating$12.41$13.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIKBDCKayne Anderson BDC11/19/2025Lower Price Target$14.80$16.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROITSLXSixth Street Specialty Lending11/19/2025Lower Price Target$20.99$24.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIVOYAVoya Financial11/19/2025Lower Price Target$68.51$85.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIFSKFS KKR Capital11/14/2025Lower Price Target$15.51$17.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROICNNECannae11/12/2025Lower Price Target$15.73$19.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIBXSLBlackstone Secured Lending Fund11/12/2025Lower Price Target$26.80$29.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROISAFESafehold11/6/2025Lower Price Target$13.74$17.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIAMPAmeriprise Financial11/3/2025Lower Price Target$452.27$550.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIOMFOneMain11/3/2025Boost Price Target$60.54$70.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIIVZInvesco10/30/2025Boost Price Target$23.93$25.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIARCCAres Capital10/29/2025Lower Price Target$20.57$23.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIAGNCAGNC Investment10/22/2025Boost Price Target$10.20$11.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIARESAres Management9/29/2025Reiterated Rating$162.56$215.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROINLYAnnaly Capital Management9/15/2025Boost Price Target$22.04$23.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIMSDLMorgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund9/10/2025Lower Price Target$17.89$19.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIBXSLBlackstone Secured Lending Fund9/4/2025Lower Price Target$29.40$32.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIMAINMain Street Capital8/28/2025Boost Price Target$64.82$67.00Outperform$0.0000.00% ROIFSKFS KKR Capital8/26/2025Lower Price Target$17.90$18.00Sector Perform$0.0000.00% ROIThe world’s least risky AI stock? (Ad)Whitney Tilson, senior editor at Stansberry Research, has identified a company he calls the world's safest AI stock, one most investors have never heard of. The firm sits at the intersection of AI, energy, and defense, and one of America's most famous investors reportedly put roughly half his fund into it. In recent years it has returned more than Apple, Amazon, and the S&P 500 combined.
