USHY: Yield Spread Hits A New Low Vs. Investment-Grade Bonds (Rating Downgrade)
The narrowing spread between U.S. investment-grade yields and high-yield bonds has become a risk to consider. Historically, high-yield bonds underperform during periods of spread expansion, as seen in 2018 and 2020. The current divergence between the yield spread and the VIX index indicates rising market volatility and declining risk perception.

Breakevens vary though, with some variable rate investments likely to offer above-average yields for years to come, others not so much.
