Description & usage
The PIMCO 0–5 Year High Yield Corporate Bond Index ETF focuses on short-maturity U.S. high-yield corporate bonds. Short duration can reduce interest-rate sensitivity versus longer high-yield funds, but credit risk (defaults and spread widening) remains the key factor. Returns come from coupon income and price moves that often depend on economic conditions and risk sentiment. The ETF is used to access high yield with a shorter-duration profile.
