Re: JRO - Leverage

Good question. I expect the floating rate funds to perform in an environment of rising interest rates. Thus, since this sector is expected to do well, I want to use leverage in an up cycle and sell it in a down cycle.

A number of bond funds won't perform well with higher interest rates so I wanted to de-leverage in that situation but floating loans should rise in that economic environment so I want the benefit of leverage with those type of assets.

I also purchased a few BDC's who have a lot of exposure to floating rate debt, they are ARCC, HTGC and OCSL.
