The iShares iBoxx $ High Yield Corporate Bond ETF seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of U.S. dollar-denominated, high yield corporate bonds.
Take profit level: $80 HYG tracks a market-weighted index of US high-yield corporate debt. In general terms, HYG is a perfectly adequate high-yield corporate bond index ETF, with a reasonably good yield. Adequate does not mean good, as the fund compares unfavorably to most of its peers in three key metrics: expense ratio, dividend yield, and total shareholder returns.
Lately there's been a short covering rally in high yield/junk but I think that ends soon with big tech earnings, FOMC and all of the other economic data releases this week. Macroeconomic picture has not changed. Don't think we break this downward trend line that's been in place all year. I'll also take a long position in TLT to offset exposure. *Not...
If you’re chasing portfolio income, you may be eyeing high-yield bonds, also known as junk bonds, which typically pay more interest but carry greater risk. Since interest rates and bond prices move in opposite directions, U.S. junk bond values have dipped to the lowest levels since May 2020. But yields are at 7.5% as of May 17, up from 4.42% since the beginning...
Hi Everyone, I'm waiting for Short if the break break the trend-line. Signals: - Price in Resistance. - Main Trend, Bearish. - Close to The top of the Bearish-Channel. Good Bye & Good Trading!!!
There are no bad bonds, only bad prices. So Dan Fuss, Loomis Sayles’ vice chairman, has often observed—a lesson gleaned from more than six decades of experience managing corporate bond portfolios. After what seems likely to go into the books as the worst first half of the year for fixed-income markets on record, prices now look a lot better from the standpoint of...
They almost always trade exactly the same. And HYG has NEVER gone down without oil going down. Until right now. Wonder how long it will take to correct.
This is an opinion from space view. (Monthly charts since inception) HYG bounced off massive down trend line. Its sleeping just under the support line off all previous down turn in SP500 since 2009. Are we out of the woods? Is there a liquidity a problem? Stores are packed and prices are going down and stabilizing. I think oil is the last thing to stand in the...
This is a monthly chart of the HYG with RSI. It hit an extreme low level on RSI only a few times in the last 12-13 years. The other times are March 2009, January 2016, December 2018 and March 2020. During these times, the equity market had rallied back up to all-time high after a correction or bear market. This could be a potential market bottom again and a buying...
The Corporate bond market got extremely oversold and it bounced without the Fed having to pivot. Essentially the market got to 2013-2018 levels, and bounced nicely at the old support. But we still don't know whether the bottom is in or now, as there are more questions that need to be answered, like: Does the market expect the Fed to reverse course soon? Does the...
Although stocks fooled around all day yesterday until they were bought off, high-yield bonds rose, breaking further and further from the lows. This once again underlines our thesis that the demand for government bonds is caused not only by the desire of investors to escape from risk (as some people think), but by the confidence that the worst is over. Because...
I wanna just short everything that moves. junk bonds look like 1929 free fall, when they break first support gonna be ugly. Fed is gonna squeeze us to our knees. if everything so good why junk bonds not mooning lmao. Implode quick (vix 80) to start recovery sooner. bruh this recession can be spotted by blind man. xoxo
Whenever HYG is moving down, it is telling us that the risk is off in the equity market. It is true for the current market condition. When this bottoms, then the market will bottom.
Bond yields often broadcast a pulse on global economic and geopolitical events long before the equities markets! Most market observers are already keeping 10yr Tsy yields on their radar, and of course the 3mth Bills/10yr Tsy spread as the key indicator of curve 'steepness' or 'inversion'. But especially as the Fed starts unloading bonds from its balance sheet,...
With credit conditions starting to deteriorate currently,(mostly in Europe) high yielding debt will definitely be most negatively affected, especially after the first rate hikes from the Fed. Another great opportunity here to go short. The structure shows clearly a developing Wyckoff distribution similar to the one of Bitocin just before it crashed to 30k last May.
HYG / LQD weekly chart shows a breakout above the March 2020 former broken support which was tested as resistance in March 2021 and could even be called a cup and handle. High Yield is commanded from this bonds because they are considered higher risk. So with all the geopolitical and rising rates concerns, this seems contrary and signals that we may be in a...
It's only Wednesday, but the weekly perspective on this ratio of high yield "junk" bonds to government treasuries is currently painting "Go" conditions. Often used as a proxy for overall market risk, the ratio trends higher when investor demand for high yield bonds is greater than their demand for government treasuries. The concept then is a rising ratio shows...
JNK/TLT is equal to HYG/TLT IWM/SPY IWM/QQQ BTCUSD is a newer one. Time will tell if it holds up. "Risk on" means risk on 'outperforms' risk off. It does not mean risk on goes up and risk off goes down. They can move in the same direction.
