Is PSCIX undervalued?

American Beacon SSI Alternative Income Fund Y Class (PSCIX) closed at 9.98 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 9 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 17.23, which puts the price 42% below it. 6 of the 9 models value the shares above the current price. A gap this wide is rare in our universe of ~7,400 US stocks and is exactly what the Value part of the Wheel Score rewards; it is also where the question "why is it this cheap?" matters most.

There is a wide gap between GLS Growth (3.24) and 10 Cap (37.03). 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.

The nightly engine files PSCIX under High Yield Income: a dividend yield above 4%.

Quality and financial health

American Beacon SSI Alternative Income Fund Y Class scores 5 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that falls one point short of the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. Some of the nine tests on profitability, leverage and efficiency are failed, so the accounts are worth a look before selling a put on the name. On durability PSCIX scores 5.1/10 on the GLS Moat - a middle reading; the Scorecard on the Quote page's Financials tab shows which ten-year lines are steady and which are not.

Returns on capital are high - ROIC 57.7%, ROE 112.2%, ROA 28.3% - with debt at 0.95 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 8.6%.

The dividend yield is high at 5.77% (payout ratio 28%). 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 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
