a high yield bond’s value changing because of changes in the level or structure of interest rates.
Sometimes it seems like there are more risks attached to high yield bonds than is worth messing with, but there are several ways to minimize the risks. One way is to add increased diversity by putting assets into several different industries and using several different issuers of bonds. This helps to reduce the risk of defaults or price declines that are caused by industry-specific circumstances or situations.
Another sound approach is to adjust your portfolios over market and economic cycles. During the economic expansion cycle is a wonderful time to own high yield bonds. This is when financial measures increase along with consumer confidence. Obviously, during a period of financial recession is not a good time to invest in higher risk securities.
One great way to stay on top of financial news that may have an impact on your holdings is to read the latest publications of rating agencies. These often include advance warnings of market difficulties, as well as news about downgrading ratings of issuers.
And the issuers and industries you have aligned yourself with should also be kept a close eye on. Follow the industry and issuers of your bonds just like you would equities. This will help you anticipate the impact of a coming rate change.
