I think BDC's went bad when their short term debt rates skyrocketed.

Really? The BDCs don't operate (as far as I know) the short term Repo market. PSEC - for example - says that they benefit from rising rates as their debt is fixed rate, whereas their loans are often floating rate (thus benefiting from rising rates). I would think if short term rates skyrocketed the BDCs could just not borrow - as long as their existing loans are on schedule their yield should be fine.
