    About HYG

    Tracks liquid high-yield ("junk") U.S. dollar-denominated corporate bonds rated below investment grade. HYG offers significantly higher income than investment-grade bonds in exchange for greater credit risk and higher default sensitivity. Returns correlate more closely with equities than with Treasuries.

    How StockWorthy analyses HYG

    ETFs hold companies rather than generating cash flow themselves, so HYG is assessed on cost, income and the valuation of what it owns: the expense ratio, the current yield against its own 5.48% long-run average, and a holdings-weighted P/E and growth rate built from the underlying positions. Figures are educational and not investment advice.
