Stock price when the opinion was issued
Floating rate notes tend to do very well in general when yields are rising. No price change over the last 5 years, but you're earning about 5.5% right now. Doesn't love that credit spreads are really tight, and that this brings the risk of high yield. This fund won't protect you from widening credit spread in a hard landing, so you have more risk than you think.
Have a look at private mortgage companies and residential exposure -- better protection, diversification, and yield.
We would be comfortable with ZFH. Floating rate bonds, of course, may see lower distributions if rates fall, but do offer protection in the opposite scenario. Indicated yield is 5.64% and one year return +8.48%. We would consider it a solid, fairly conservative ETF for income. Fees are 0.45%.

4.9% yield. Holds exposure to a high yield index so you get a high yield return. There are risks. It is very similar to the volatility of the market.
