"$ECC peeps: One of my subscribers a CIO of a $200B AUM firm reached out after he read my recent CLO equity piece and was kind enough to arrange a call with his internal CLO equity PM who like Eagle Point is a control equity investor in CLO equities. Not only did he also corroborate Spread COMPRESSION as the primary headwind to the asset class this year I was surprised to learn that most CLO equity funds are down this year from the same NAV erosion due to Spread Compression that ECC has been facing. He too has been doing Resets like crazy to lock in historic financing spreads to position for"

"Musings of the Day 12/8/25: I have been running side-by-side prompts between ChatGPT XXX and Gemini Pro X for the last several weeks and at least when it comes to financial analyses and reasoning Gemini's answers are so much better than ChatGPT's -- even when I handicap by providing detailed persona descriptions for ChatGPT and not for Gemini.

"This is a worthwhile interview with @michaelxpettis. I agree with much of what Pettis says: Pettis' "Involution" is my Chinese Runaway Assembly Line and I wholeheartedly agree that the "Globalization" of the last several decades has NOT been predicated on Supply/Demand & Comparative Advantage. My primary difference of opinion is on Tariffs. Pettis talks about the inefficacy of Tariffs from a direct bilateral trade equalization perspective whereas I view the Trump XXX Tariffs as an integral part of the carrot-vs-stick Economic Statecraft that has resulted in Reshoring commitments so large that"

"$ECC peeps 12/10/25: ECC posted its 11/30 NAV last night at $XXXX vs. 10/31 NAV of $XXXX. While I expected continued NAV erosion due to Spread Compression the sharpness of this move is clearly suggestive that the underlying CLO Equities are being marked down at the same time due to sentiment. This is what the ECC CFO said he was most frustrated about when we chatted this week -- we all know in the longer-term BOTH conditions can't persist. This is commentary I got from one of my new CLO collateral manager contacts. He corroborated my comments above: "The marks on 10x levered structures can"
