The iShares Broad USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (USHY) seeks to track the performance of the U.S. dollar-denominated high yield corporate bond market. The fund maintains a policy of investing at least 80% of its assets in the component securities of its underlying index and at least 90% in representative fixed income securities.
High yield bonds, often referred to as junk bonds, are issued by companies with credit ratings below investment grade. These instruments typically offer higher coupon rates to compensate investors for increased default risk compared to government or investment-grade corporate debt. The sectors performance is often closely correlated with the broader economic cycle and corporate earnings health.
