HYD: An Uncertain Rate Outlook Warrants Caution

VanEck High Yield Muni ETF offers a high tax-equivalent yield of ~7.38% for top-bracket investors, driven by high-yield, longer-maturity municipal bonds. HYD's attractive yield comes with significant interest-rate sensitivity, as its ~9.35-year modified duration exposes investors to considerable downside from rate increases. Rising inflation and energy prices, combined with a hawkish rate outlook, create a challenging environment for HYD's long duration, including considerable lower-rated muni exposure.

High Yield Munis Useful for Diversification, Extra Income

HYD: Solid High-Yield Bond ETF, But Better Choices Out There (Rating Downgrade)

HYD is a muni bond ETF, investing in both high-yield and investment-grade muni bonds. It has a tax-advantaged 4.4% yield, which should provide above-average income to some investors in higher tax brackets. It seems broadly inferior to FLMI, another muni bond ETF, with higher-quality holdings and stronger performance.
