The fund's discount has narrowed since our last update, helping to drive overall total returns, but distribution coverage has weakened further as expected when the Fed cut rates. As the fund is trading near its longer-term average discount level, it is somewhat attractive, but certainly less appealing than it was previously.

SDHY: Short Duration HY CEF That Fails To Impress

PGIM Short Duration High Yield Opportunities Fund is a fixed income closed end fund from Prudential, focusing on shorter duration high yield bonds.

SDHY needs a multi-year credit bull market to potentially improve its performance and narrow the discount to NAV, making it a less attractive option currently.
