The Best High Yield Bonds ETFs

The table below compares the performance and other essential indicators like dividend yield and expense ratio of 104 High Yield Bonds ETFs.

High-yield bonds ETFs are exchange-traded funds that invest in a diversified portfolio of bonds with lower credit ratings, also known as "junk bonds". These bonds are issued by companies or municipalities with a higher risk of default and thus offer higher yields to compensate for the added risk. As a result, high-yield bonds are considered to be a higher-risk, higher-return investment than investment-grade bonds, which are issued by companies or municipalities with better credit ratings.
