Do a search in the yahoo finance window for 'high yield' if you're curious about this one.
I bought early (as I always do) into JNK, which allows for intraday trading, as opposed to the big Janus and Vanguard funds.
In any case, it is certainly interesting that folks are snapping up foreclosures in the nether regions of the Central Valley and High Desert in the hopes of maybe getting a 10% cap if they're lucky, after a ton of personal legwork and refurb work, meanwhile, I wouldn't be shocked if the intraday low on JNK reflected a yield of 20% or so. And that's for some of the largest companies in America, who may well have an extremely rough year, but will likely not default. Of course, the high yield funds that have a nice chunk of automaker paper are now approaching yields that would make Vinnie the Loanshark blush.
Thoughts? Am I just being a bug to the bugzapper again with this sector? Or is the 1500 basis point gap between this group and treasuries totally loco?
