Our read on JCPB
In short
BThe Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate is JCPB's yardstick, not its cage. J.P. Morgan's bond desk builds a mostly investment-grade core, then reaches into high yield and foreign debt for extra income. Cost: 0.40% a year.
Stated mandate
The ETF seeks a high level of current income from investment-grade and non-investment-grade securities. It mainly uses investment-grade bonds, while combining bottom-up selection, dynamic sector allocation, and macro analysis of the yield curve, duration, and portfolio risk.
