HYB: Time To Say Goodbye To This CEF (Rating Downgrade)
HYB is converting to an ETF in February 2025, eliminating leverage and the discount to NAV, thus removing the arbitrage opportunity. Credit spreads are at historic lows, making the current 5.7% yield unattractive and increasing downside risk for HYB in 2025. The fund's structural changes will involve asset sales to repay borrowings, potentially altering the portfolio significantly post-conversion.
