JNK: Intensifying Spread Risk Has Yet To Be Priced By The Market
The SPDR® Bloomberg High Yield Bond ETF held up relatively well in the aftermath of the tariff debacle last week. Despite its relative performance, we see credit risk emerging, which has yet to be priced by the market. Migration risk will likely add a second layer of headwinds.

JNK: High-Yield Bonds Are About To Become Junk Again (Strong Sell Rating)
JNK is one of a pair of tenured high-yield bond ETFs, listed since 2007. This is a notoriously cyclical sub-sector of the bond market that is again showing signs that tell me to stay away. I am putting my money where my mouth is, as I own a put position on HYG, which trades in sync with JNK, but has a more liquid options market.

JNK And SJNK: Shrinking Spreads, Mounting Danger
Junk bonds currently offer a poor risk/reward profile due to low credit spreads and rising delinquency rates. "Fallen Angel" bonds, downgraded from investment-grade, present a potentially better alternative with higher credit quality and track record of outperformance. JNK and SJNK ETFs have high correlations with the equity market, offering limited diversification and experiencing sharp draw-downs during market crashes.

JNK: Underweighting Makes Sense
JNK provides exposure to high-yield junk bonds issued in the US. A high yield but faces high credit risk and refinancing risk amid current economic conditions. Despite its impressive long-term performance and diversification benefits, the ETF's risk-reward profile is less attractive now due to still restrictive interest rates and potential economic downturns. Underweighting JNK and overweighting long-term treasuries is reasonable.
