HYT: Decreasing Exposure To Floating-Rate Securities Is The Correct Move Today
The BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund offers a 9.48% yield, appealing to retirees seeking high income with reasonable capital preservation compared to peers. Despite recent bond market declines, the fund's total return since September 2024 is 0.84%, outperforming investment-grade bonds but lagging junk bonds. The fund has been decreasing its exposure to floating-rate assets, which is the best move in the current monetary environment.

HYT: This Is A Decent Junk Bond Fund, But It Does Not Deserve Its Current Premium
BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund offers a 9.44% yield, making it attractive for income-seeking investors, especially retirees needing regular monthly payments. Despite recent strong performance, HYT's future gains are limited due to already priced-in interest rate cuts. The fund's leverage is lower than peers, reducing risk, but its reliance on a revolving credit line for cash needs could be concerning.

HYT: Leveraged High-Yield Bond Fund Faces Trifecta Of Headwinds
The BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund invests in non-investment grade bonds as an actively managed closed-end fund. Climbing interest rates at a time when credit spreads are at a historically low level highlight key risks to consider.
