About BXHYX
MassMutual High Yield Fund Class Y is an actively managed mutual fund focused on below‑investment‑grade corporate debt, seeking a high level of total return with an emphasis on current income. According to provider and third‑party summaries, the strategy primarily invests in high yield bonds and related securities, allocating at least a substantial majority of assets to lower‑rated issuers to capture elevated coupon income and credit spread opportunities. The portfolio targets the U.S. high yield market and may include a diversified mix across industries, maturities, and credit tiers to balance income generation with credit risk management. The fund’s role in the market is to provide institutional‑style access to speculative‑grade credit, offering investors exposure to credit cycles, default risk, and recovery dynamics that differ from investment‑grade bonds and government securities. It is commonly used as a core or satellite fixed income holding to enhance portfolio yield and diversify duration‑heavy exposures, with performance driven by issuer selection, sector positioning, and shifts in high yield spreads across economic regimes.
Performance
BXHYX had a total return of 4.53% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 7.05%.
