High-yield corporate bonds are generating strong returns this year, helped by higher interest rates by the Federal Reserve. Most of these ETFs are yielding over 6%, higher than short-term government bonds and dividends.

HYLS offers a 6.0% yield and has outperformed most peers since inception. HYLS is riskier and pricier than its peers, with a 1.27% expense ratio. I rank HYLS as a buy, but I think there is a better alternative.
