FYI: As the stock market hits record highs, demand for riskier bonds has surged.
Just in the last two weeks, exchange-traded funds tracking U.S. high-yield bonds have seen a net inflow of over $2 billion — four times the inflow of the previous month, according to data from Markit. At this pace, monthly flows could exceed $4 billion, which would make July the biggest month for high-yield inflows since January 2012.
