The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Howard Marks advocates for a notable enhancement in credit allocation, but how can this be implemented practically?

The obvious straightforward way would be to give your money to Howard Marks and have him do for you what he is advocating everyone should do.

Oaktree Strategic Credit Fund is an example. It's a Private Credit fund which generates returns by privately lending to companies.
