FDHY: Among The Best Junk Bond ETFs
FDHY uses an active, research-driven approach to select high-yield bonds, focusing on short maturities and risk management. The ETF has outperformed a high-yield benchmark and major competitors in total return and Sharpe ratio.

The Benefits of Active Strategies for Fixed Income ETF Exposure
Active versus passive has been a big debate in the fixed income ETF space in recent years. While passive approaches are commonly thought to offer simplicity and lower fees, a compelling case can be made for the continued relevance and potential outperformance of active management in the fixed income market.
High Yield ETF Exposure Is a Critical Component in Diversified Portfolios
Many investors have underweighted high yield bond ETF strategies in recent years, satisfied with the opportunities found in other segments of the fixed income market. While seemingly a smart defensive strategy, avoiding high yield exposure could cause investors to unintentionally increase overall risk.
FDHY: Robust Active High Yield Fund, But Timing Is Not Right
Fidelity Enhanced High Yield ETF is an active ETF using a quantitative model to select high yield bonds, focusing on BB and B rated credits with minimal CCC exposure. The fund has a robust track record, outperforming passive peers but slightly trailing another active ETF, HYDB, in total returns. Current high yield spreads are at a decade low, making the market overbought and not an attractive entry point for FDHY.

FDHY ETF's actively managed structure and quantitative model may not guarantee outperformance, interest rate risk is a factor to consider.
