Foolish take
Invesco corporate bond ETFs make up almost 17% of Mirador Capital Partners holdings, per its latest 13F filing. Is recent move to add over $22 million of Invesco's BulletShares 2026 High Yield Corporate Bond ETF reflects rebalancing rather than a significant change.
That's because Mirador also sold almost $38 million of its shares in a similar fund containing corporate bonds that are due to mature at the end of this year -- the Invesco BulletShares 2025 High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (BSJP 0.04%). Mirador put some of the proceeds into the BSJQ ETF that matures in 2026. It also opened a position in another Invesco High Yield Corporate Bond ETF that's due to mature in 2027.
Corporate Bond ETFs can be a way to diversify portfolios with income-generating assets. ETFs containing high-yield corporate bonds carry more risk than investment-grade bonds. As with many things in the investment world, that increased risk can translate into higher rewards. Mirador's strategy of laddering these corporate bond ETFs with fixed maturity dates can be a way to mitigate the risks of changing interest rates.
