Investors poured a record amount of money into high-yield bond ETFs in November, but I remain bearish on the junk bond market. A looming maturity wall and expected rise in defaults create a negative environment for junk bond ETFs. The artificially high prices of junk bonds and low yield spread over treasuries do not justify the risks associated with investing in junk bonds.

The article evaluates the SPDR Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Bond ETF as an investment option at its current market price. I believe owning higher yielding securities is a good idea as bond performance was expected to improve. Issuance has been tight for the sector, which I expect to continue. This supports the underlying prices of the securities in JNK.

During this Fed tightening cycle, preferred stocks have declined significantly below par value which is normally $25. Buying preferred stocks at below par can represent an excellent total return opportunity as the current dividend yield is high relative to treasuries and other bonds. Also, there's the potential for price appreciation if the securities return to par.
