YYY: The Income Is Attractive, The Long-Term Returns Are Not

The Amplify CEF High Income ETF offers a 12.81% distribution rate, but its 10-year NAV total return is only 5.11% annualized. Several major credit-oriented holdings use substantial leverage, while tight high-yield spreads leave limited room for error if credit conditions normalize. YYY's underlying CEF discount has narrowed from 7.9% at June-end to 5.27%, reducing the valuation cushion available to investors.

YYY: Return Free Risk, Don't Be Fooled By This 12% Yield ETF

Amplify CEF High Income ETF offers diversified exposure to high-yield closed-end funds with a 50/50 equities/bonds allocation and no top-level leverage. Despite a 12% yield, YYY's long-term annualized return is under 6%, raising concerns about fee drag and real, after-inflation returns. Recent 3-year performance exceeded 12.5% annualized, but peer funds like CEFS and FOF have delivered stronger risk-adjusted results.
