About PBHAX

PGIM High Yield Fund Class A is an open‑end mutual fund focused on below‑investment‑grade corporate credit. Its primary objective is to maximize current income, with capital appreciation pursued when consistent with that goal. The strategy typically invests at least 80% of assets in a diversified portfolio of high yield fixed‑income instruments rated Ba/BB or lower, employing broad issuer and sector diversification to manage credit risk while targeting elevated coupon income. The portfolio spans cyclical and defensive industries and may hold short‑term government or cash equivalents for liquidity and risk management. The fund distributes income monthly and has amassed a large asset base, reflecting its role as a core high yield allocation for income‑oriented investors seeking exposure to the U.S. speculative‑grade bond market. It is positioned within the high yield bond category, emphasizing credit selection and disciplined risk controls, with an expense profile aligned to an actively managed approach. According to fund and third‑party data providers, it maintains hundreds of holdings and a relatively low interest‑rate sensitivity, consistent with typical shorter effective duration in high yield strategies.
