CLOs were one of the best-performing income asset classes of prior years, due to aggressive Federal Reserve hikes.

JBBB's portfolio is concentrated in BBB-rated CLOs, reflecting a conservative approach within the B-BBB credit spectrum and spanning 238 issuances across industries. Structural oil market disruptions and elevated prices are expected to sustain inflation, increasing the likelihood of Fed rate hikes that benefit JBBB's floating-rate holdings.
