CCIF Update: The Red Flags Keep Adding Up

Carlyle Credit Income Fund continues to pay an unsustainable 20% yield, with most distributions funded by return of capital. CCIF's net investment income fell 32% year-over-year, while realized losses and rising expenses further eroded shareholder value and NAV. Despite some credit quality strengths, CCIF's structural flaws and deteriorating yields make it unsuitable for long-term income investors seeking capital preservation.

CCIF: Discounted Valuation Still Doesn't Justify A Buy

I maintain my Hold rating on Carlyle Credit Income Fund due to persistent NAV decline, weak earnings, and continued share price pressure in a high-rate environment. Despite a 22.8% dividend yield and a large discount to NAV, I remain cautious as the discount reflects internal fund weakness, not opportunity. CCIF's earnings and dividend coverage have weakened, with sustainability concerns if defaults rise or interest rate cuts are delayed further.
