Seven private credit stocks ranked by investment quality — Blackstone Secured Lending, Golub, and Main Street Capital all place, while the top two spots close out the countdown.

Nuveen Investment Funds, Inc. (NGIF) is expected to list on the NYSE on 2026-06-03, but the price range has not been disclosed. The setup is less a classic IPO and more a fund offering tied to infrastructure exposure. Bull case: a long Nuveen track record and a specialized mandate; bear case: this is not an operating company IPO, and the filing set does not show traditional growth metrics.

Stellus Capital Investment Corporation 5.75% NT 2022 is expected to list on NASDAQ on 2026-05-27, but the price range has not been disclosed. The security appears to be a notes issue, not a new equity IPO, so the key question is how investors view the company’s private credit funding model. Watch the structural-subordination risk and the fact that Stellus has already been public since 2012.

Powerlaw Corp. Common Stock (NASDAQ: PWRL) is expected to list on 2026-05-27, but the price range has not been disclosed. This is a resale listing of existing shares, not a traditional capital-raising IPO. The bull case is access to hard-to-own private tech names; the bear case is a closed-end fund that can trade below NAV.
