CCC and high-yield credit distress spreading.
CCC-rated spreads have widened to about 1000 basis points, implying distress across roughly $250 billion of debt, with another half-trillion just above that also at risk because small capital structures face inflation and refinancing costs about three times higher. Defaults, PIK, and nonaccruals are rising, zombie companies will eventually blow up, and the next contagion leg could hit U.S. single-B and double-B corporate bonds.

Favor credit spreads over duration
With duration unattractive because fiscal/doom-loop risks are hard to quantify, he is diversifying into fixed-income spread sectors; credit fundamentals hold up, defaults are controlled, and he finds opportunities in leveraged/senior loans, single-B/double-B credit, CLOs, munis and preferreds. Leveraged loans yield around 9-9.5%.

High-grade credit faces AI supply headwind.
AI-related debt issuance is enormous and concentrated in high-grade IG and Double-B/high-end high-yield credit. With higher rates volatility reducing investor confidence, spreads can widen and credit can underperform even without a recession because supply is not quantifiable and lacks a clear end.
