JMBS: An Attractive Income Play Amid Fed Rate Cuts

The Janus Henderson Mortgage-Backed Securities ETF invests primarily in agency/investment grade securities, employing 28.8% leverage to increase returns. A 0.6% drop in U.S. 10-year yields has resulted in JMBS performing in line with pure-play treasury alternatives such as IEF so far in 2025. While some incremental decline in long-term yields is likely to materialize, JMBS should outperform going forward thanks to its higher current dividend yield.
