XCCC Profile
The BondBloxx CCC Rated USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF is strategically focused on investing in a specific segment of the high-yield bond market. The fund primarily targets corporate bonds rated CCC or below, which are classified as high-risk, high-reward investments. These bonds are characterized by their higher yields compared to investment-grade bonds, reflecting the increased risk associated with issuers that may have weaker credit profiles.
Under normal market conditions, the fund commits at least 80% of its net assets, including any borrowings used for investment purposes, to high-yield bonds rated CCC or lower. This allocation strategy aims to capitalize on the higher yield potential offered by lower-rated corporate debt. The fund may acquire these bonds directly or gain exposure through financial derivatives, which can enhance or hedge its exposure to the underlying credit risk.
The BondBloxx CCC Rated USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF is non-diversified, meaning its investment portfolio may be concentrated in a smaller number of bonds or issuers compared to more diversified funds. This concentrated approach can amplify both potential returns and risks, as the performance of the fund is closely tied to the credit quality and economic conditions affecting the CCC-rated bonds it holds.
Investors should be aware of the inherent risks associated with investing in lower-rated high-yield bonds, including credit risk, market volatility, and potential for higher price fluctuations. The fund’s focus on CCC-rated bonds positions it to offer potentially higher yields, but also exposes it to greater credit risk and default risk. It is suited for investors with a higher risk tolerance who seek to gain exposure to the high-yield segment of the corporate bond market with a specific emphasis on lower-rated debt.
