Prospect Capital Corp. Hits New 52-Week Low at $2.66

Prospect Capital Corp., a small-cap player in the capital markets industry, has recently reached a new 52-week low of USD 2.66 on September 18, 2025. This significant decline reflects a challenging year for the company, with its stock price plummeting by 51.81% over the past year, contrasting sharply with the S&P 500's performance, which has seen a gain of 17.14% during the same period.
The company's market capitalization stands at USD 1,275 million, indicating its position within the small-cap segment. Despite a notable dividend yield of 18.69%, Prospect Capital Corp. has faced difficulties, as evidenced by its negative return on equity of -10.20% and a price-to-book ratio of 0.28. The company's financial metrics suggest a complex landscape, with a debt-to-equity ratio that raises questions about its capital structure.

As Prospect Capital Corp. navigates these market conditions, the recent drop to a 52-week low underscores the ongoing volatility within the capital markets sector.
