Our read on GHYB
AMost cheap high-yield ETFs just buy the whole junk-bond market. GHYB tracks an index Goldman co-designed with FTSE that screens the universe first, and charges well under the typical high-yield ETF.
The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the Citi Goldman Sachs High Yield Corporate Bond Index, which measures U.S.-dollar-denominated high-yield corporate bonds.
Why people hold it
- 0.15% a year against a roughly 0.40% median for high-yield bond ETFs. In a coupon-driven asset, fee drag comes straight out of the income.
- The screened index is the point: a rules-based cut of the broad FTSE high-yield market, built with Goldman, not a plain market-cap sweep.am.gs.com
- Tracks its index very tightly, with roughly 600 bonds and monthly distributions doing the work.
- One of the stronger builds in a crowded high-yield field, and it has been running since 2017.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded and modest in size next to the category giants, which usually shows up as wider bid-ask spreads.
- SCYB, SPHY and USHY charge less for full-market high-yield exposure. Here you pay a bit more for the screen.
- Screens do not remove credit risk. This is below-investment-grade corporate debt and it moves with the credit cycle.
