That helps to explain tighter spreads, and suggests they should not shy away from high-yield because they're being compensated for &quot;the true level of default risk in the market.&quot; On the loan side, Chintapalli says that while the Federal Reserve has entered a rate-cutting cycle, it shouldn't scare investors out of floating-rate loans, because they would be passing up high levels of income as a starting point to minimize default risks that are already quite low and likely to stay that way.
