Lincoln National: Market Fears Create Opportunity

Lincoln National remains a 'Buy,' with shares offering 30% upside and a 5.2% secure dividend yield. LNC's capital position is strong, with a risk-based capital ratio above 420% and leverage at its 25% target. Private credit fears are overstated for LNC, as 75% of its exposure is investment grade and direct lending is just 1.5% of the portfolio.
