AdvisorShares Peritus High Yield ETF (NYSEArca: HYLD)
30-Day SEC Yield: 7.57%
Duration: 3 years
Comment: The AdvisorShares Peritus High Yield ETF is one of the more successful actively managed ETFs. Over $429.4 million in assets under management affirms as much. HYLD stood tall relative to passively managed U.S. junk bond ETFs when rates spiked earlier this year and it is easy to explain why. HYLD’s duration of three years is nearly a full year below the Barclays U.S. High Yield Index with a coupon that is 160 basis points above that index.
