iShares US High Yield Bd Idx ETF (CAD-Hedged) T.XHY

Alternate Symbol(s):  IUYBF

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide income by replicating, to the extent possible, the performance of an index which is a diversified representation of the US dollar denominated high yield corporate bond market, net of expenses. To achieve its investment objective the Fund uses an indexing strategy. Under this strategy, the Fund seeks to replicate the performance of the Index, net of expenses, by employing, directly or indirectly, through investment in one or more iShares ETFs and/or through the use of derivatives, a replicating strategy or sampling strategy. A replicating strategy is an investment strategy intended to replicate the performance of the Index by investing, directly or indirectly, primarily in a portfolio of index securities in substantially the same proportions as they are represented in the Index.

RE: yield

RE: yield

The fund is comprised of short term corporate bonds and not government. 

Depending on the bond term, i think many corps will renew at a discount and errode XHY's NAV. 

That said, the yield is still better than buying gov bonds and the distributions won't be slashed overnight.  

Just my thoughts.
