EFT - Looking At 2 High-Yield Options: KIO And IVH
- These are two options in the high-yield sector that look at least semi attractive at these levels for various reasons.
- These funds are more hybrid funds like ARDC with some allocation to leveraged loans helping to diversify the portfolio.
- The high-yield space, as I've noted several times, is fully valued. But that doesn't mean you avoid it. It simply means you reduce some exposure and be selective.
- While the loan and convertible sectors may be more compelling, there aren't many other areas worth investing in right now. Additionally, HY NAVs are rising nicely.
- KIO is a very well-run fund and could easily be a buy and hold here. IVH is more of a medium-term (6-18 months) purchase with some upside optionality from potential proxy issues.
