Blue Owl stock in focus after fund liquidity change jars private credit investors

Blue Owl Capital shares fell less than 0.1% to $11.58 premarket Friday after a 5.9% drop Thursday, triggered by changes to liquidity terms in a private debt fund. The firm sold $1.4 billion in loans to return capital to investors and removed quarterly redemption options from its $1.6 billion OBDC II fund. Blue Owl said it will return 30% of the fund’s net asset value within 45 days.

  • Copper Supply Crunch Boosts ASX Junior Miners with Promising Projects
    May 26, 2026, 5:12 PM EDT. Copper supply constraints amid rising demand from electric vehicles (EVs), renewables, and data centres are spotlighting Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) juniors like Pivotal Metals, CuFe, and Caravel. The International Energy Agency warns that announced copper projects could underdeliver supply by 30% against 2035 demand forecasts. Majors like BHP and Rio Tinto rely on ageing mines and technology to sustain output, but juniors with higher-grade, faster-moving deposits are attracting capital. Pivotal Metals' Horden Lake project in Quebec, with polymetallic potential and upcoming resource updates, exemplifies the market's interest. Experts note growing financing options including streaming deals, with KGL Resources' $300 million gold-silver streaming contract cited as a model. As copper prices near record highs, timely development through engineering and permitting is crucial to capitalize on the bull market cycle.
