Neuberger High Yield Strategies Fund Inc

NHS

Market cap $229M

Neuberger High Yield Strategies remains rated Hold due to persistent NAV declines and inadequate dividend coverage. NHS's 14.9% yield is attractive, but net investment income consistently falls short of distributions, increasing reliance on volatile realized gains. Leverage at 30% of assets amplifies both yield and risk, especially amid high interest rates and a predominantly below-investment-grade portfolio.
