VSHY is actively managed to invest primarily in high yield securities from different sectors. Strategies like issue selection, sector/industry selection and opportunistic trading are used by the manager to pursue the funds investment objective. VSHY will generally overweight those sectors and industries where well-valued companies are viewed to be improving. It also aims to maintain a short portfolio duration of one to three years. While the fund seeks to primarily invest in US securities, foreign debt from emerging markets may also be included in the portfolio. Prior to March 22, 2021, the fund was named Virtus Newfleet Dynamic Credit ETF and did not focus on a specific credit quality. It was then known as Virtus Newfleet High Yield Bond ETF until November 27, 2023 when it maintained a duration similar to its benchmark index.
