Fidus Investment: Contrarian Buy At 52-Week Lows

Fidus Investment has dropped to 52-week lows last week, presenting a contrarian buying opportunity amid sector-wide fears and geopolitical turmoil. FDUS benefits from a variable rate loan portfolio, with 78.1% in first liens and $1.3B in assets, positioning it well if rates rise. Net investment income grew 5% year-over-year, supporting a multi-layered dividend strategy with coverage consistently near or above 100%.
