AOHY Vs. JNK: Is Active Management Better For Junk Bonds?
The Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities ETF is actively managed, but has underperformed compared to the passively managed SPDR Bloomberg High Yield Bond ETF. This is largely due to bond beta, as well as positioning on similar parts of the yield curve to the passive index. Investors are cautioned that "active management" doesn't correlate to outperformance, even if there are some exceptions in other funds I've covered in the past.

JNK: High-Yield Bonds Are About To Become Junk Again (Strong Sell Rating)
JNK is one of a pair of tenured high-yield bond ETFs, listed since 2007. This is a notoriously cyclical sub-sector of the bond market that is again showing signs that tell me to stay away.
