Survey Says: Investment Strategies are Shifting Towards Private Credit

The stock market is burning red hot these days, which has many investors wondering: If a market correction happens, where can we ride out the storm? 

A Bloomberg survey1 reveals that many institutions now prefer private credit over bonds to hedge against economic downturns. 

Why? T. Rowe Price data2 suggests that allocating 10% to private credit historically reduces volatility and improves risk-adjusted returns. 

But this ‘safe haven’ asset class isn’t just for Blackstone, KKR, and Morgan Stanley–now, everyday investors can diversify with private credit using Percent. 

• Low minimums: Start with $500

• Shorter durations: Maturity in 6-36 months (average ~9 months)

• Monthly cash flow: Most deals offer cash flow through monthly interest payments.

• Return potential: Percent boasts a net return over 14% in the last 12 months as of Q1 2024

Mars in Advanced Talks to Purchase Kellanova

Mars Eyeing Kellanova

Mars, famous for its beloved candy brands like M&Ms and Snickers, is in advanced negotiations to acquire snack giant Kellanova, according to a recent Wall Street Journal report. The acquisition could be valued at around $30 billion, considering a typical merger and acquisition premium, significantly higher than Kellanova’s current market cap of approximately $22 billion. This potential deal follows a Reuters report hinting at Mars' interest in Kellanova, known for popular snacks such as Cheez-It, Pop-Tarts, and Pringles.

Kellanova’s Strong Performance and Growth

Kellanova has been performing well since its spin-off from Kellogg last year. The company has expanded its portfolio to include snacks, frozen breakfast items like Morningstar Farms and Eggo, and an international cereal division. Recently, Kellanova reported impressive Q2 earnings, surpassing expectations and boosting its shares by 7%. The company also raised its organic sales guidance and projected EPS above the consensus, highlighting its robust financial health and growth potential.

My Analysis: 

This potential acquisition by Mars is a strategic move to diversify and strengthen its portfolio beyond candy into the thriving snack market. Kellanova's impressive performance and broad product range make it a valuable addition to Mars' offerings. If the deal goes through, it could position Mars as a dominant player in the snack industry, leveraging Kellanova's established brands and innovative product lines.
