Description: CDX Simplify Exchange Traded January 02, 2026

The Simplify Exchange Traded Fund (NYSE ARCA: CDX) targets high-yield (“junk”) bonds, allocating at least 80 % of net assets to these securities while using up to 20 % of the portfolio for credit-hedge derivatives to manage default risk.

As of the latest filing, CDX carries an expense ratio of roughly 0.30 % and manages about $1.2 billion in assets, with an average portfolio yield near 6.5 % and a weighted-average spread of ~350 bps over U.S. Treasuries, indicating a relatively aggressive credit stance.

Key drivers for CDX’s performance include the Federal Reserve’s policy path (higher rates compress high-yield spreads), the U.S. economic slowdown risk that can raise default rates, and sector concentration in energy and consumer discretionary, which historically dominate the high-yield market.
