PickAlpha Midday:
Washington is starting to lean in on private credit. Reuters has reported that the Fed is already watching the sector for signs of trouble, while Treasury is consulting insurance regulators on leverage, ratings, reinsurance, and liquidity risks tied to private credit markets. That is a meaningful signal that stress in the space is no longer being treated as a niche fund problem.

Our view is this is a regulatory escalation headline, not a collapse headline. Once both the Fed and Treasury are asking harder questions, the market has to start treating private credit as a monitored fault line rather than a self-contained alt bucket.
