Redemption Window Opens for New Quarter, US Private Credit Market Faces Redemption Storm Again
On June 5, as the redemption window for the new quarter opened, the redemption storm in the US private credit market struck once more. Several leading institutions have disclosed record withdrawal requests, and the confidence in this $1.8 trillion industry is far from restored. Notably, Blackstone's BCRED saw redemption requests reach 10%, hitting a historical high and triggering the 5% limit again, while the redemption ratio for the Cliffwater flagship fund rose to 17%, prompting Partners Group to block exit channels. Fitch data indicates that the default rate in private credit has surged to a historical peak of 6%, and PIMCO has warned that a prolonged credit default cycle has begun. The private credit industry is overly concentrated in software assets, and the disruptive impact of artificial intelligence is putting this sector under reevaluation pressure. PIMCO's Chief Investment Officer Daniel Ivascyn cautioned that 'the first prolonged credit default cycle in years has started.'

BUZZ - Levi Strauss shares drop due to weak sales in the US and Europe
On October 8, Levi Strauss (LEVI.N) shares fell 1.3% in pre-market trading to $19.25 after the company reported lower-than-expected sales in the U.S. and Europe. BTIG commented: “This quarter, the European direct-to-consumer (DTC) business was hit by unusually warm weather, but as temperatures return to normal, foot traffic and sales trends have improved, maintaining a positive outlook in early Q4.” The brokerage also noted that the company remains strong in wholesale, e-commerce, and market share in jeans, but its “back-to-school” marketing campaign did not meet expectations. Benefiting from tariff refunds on Wednesday, the company raised its annual profit forecast and is betting on strong demand for its premium jeans and sweaters during the holiday season. Sixteen analysts have an average “buy” rating; the median price target is $27, according to LSEG. The stock has risen 6% year-to-date as of the previous close.
