Blackstone Long-Short Credit Income Fund (BGX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score

Is BGX undervalued?

BGX closed at 10.65 on 5 Nov 2026 against a GLS average fair value of 11.28 - 5.6% below fair value, which our scans read as "fairly priced". 4 of 9 models are above the current price. There is no discount to lean on here, so the margin of safety is not the reason to look at the stock.

There is a wide gap between EPV (1.58) and 10 Cap (27.96). When the models are this far apart the "fair value" is really a range, and the margin of safety above should be read with that range in mind.

BGX looks like a fund, note or preferred share rather than an operating company, so the nightly engine files it under Fund / Note: the valuation models are not built for it, and its Wheel Score is capped at 45.

Nine valuation models for BGX

Each model turns the latest filed numbers into a value per share; the GLS fair value is the simple average of the ones that produce a positive number. The last two rows are shown for reference and never enter the average. The Quote page lets you switch any model off and add your own margin of safety.

Quality and financial health

Blackstone Long-Short Credit Income Fund scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. There is no GLS Moat score for BGX: funds, notes and second share lines get none, and so does a company with fewer than two years of accounts on file. The Moat part of the Wheel Score is zero.

Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 3.7%, ROE 5.5%, ROA 3.6% - with debt at 0.49 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 13.1%.

The dividend yield is high at 9.14% (payout ratio 688%) - a payout above 100% of earnings, which is not covered by profits. A yield this size is often the market's way of pricing a risk to the payout, so the health score and cash flow matter more than usual.

Institutional ownership scores 6/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.

Wheel Score 14: No options

No options are listed on Blackstone Long-Short Credit Income Fund in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 14, under 70) and is left out of every options scan; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.

Volume runs at 77k shares a day on a market cap of $135M, with a beta of 0.42 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that fair.

The Wheel Score ranks ~7,400 US stocks for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls: a stock must pass all 9 Wheel Trade Filters to score 70, and the score then ranks the ones that pass; the Sunday Scan is the top 10. It is updated nightly and is not a recommendation. How the Wheel Score works · the walkthrough lesson shows how it fits into a trade, start to finish.

Upcoming events

No upcoming earnings date is recorded for BGX in the nightly calendar. The shares go ex-dividend on 20 Nov 2026 (0.0800 per share), so a covered call sold before then carries a small early-assignment risk around that date.
