CHY: Not The Ideal Time For This Convertible Fund

CHY: Not The Ideal Time For This Convertible Fund

CHY offers an attractive 11% yield and monthly distributions, but recent performance has suffered due to high interest rates and inconsistent earnings. The fund's heavy use of leverage and significant exposure to below-investment-grade and unrated debt heighten risk, especially if rates remain elevated. CHY trades at a small premium to NAV, but its price has declined and capital appreciation potential is limited; total returns rely mainly on distributions.
