Description: SCYB Schwab High Yield Bond

The Schwab High Yield Bond ETF (SCYB) seeks to track an index of U.S. dollar-denominated below investment grade corporate debt-commonly known as junk bonds-that is publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market and currently paying coupons to bondholders. Under its stated policy, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in below investment grade bonds, meaning issuers rated below BBB- (or an equivalent rating) by major credit rating agencies. By focusing on coupon-paying securities rather than distressed or defaulted issues, the fund targets the income-generating segment of the speculative-grade corporate bond market.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Credit spreads tighten as risk appetite returns to markets
  • Federal Reserve rate cuts lift high yield bond prices
  • Junk bond default rates climb amid slowing economic growth
