About GSAWX
The Goldman Sachs Short Duration High Yield Fund is a mutual fund in the high yield bond category designed to pursue total return through a high level of current income and capital appreciation. It primarily invests in short-duration high yield bonds, which are debt securities issued by companies with lower credit ratings but offering higher yields to compensate for increased risk, while emphasizing shorter maturities to mitigate interest rate sensitivity. Notable features include an institutional share class with a minimum initial investment of $1 million, an adjusted expense ratio of 0.620%, and a TTM yield of 6.52%, positioning it as a cost-competitive option within its peer group. The portfolio holds approximately 8.4% of assets in its top 10 holdings, including corporate bonds from issuers like CCO Holdings, API Group, and Venture Global LNG, alongside cash equivalents such as Goldman Sachs FS Government Institutional. With total assets around $45.5 million and a below-average distribution fee level, this fund plays a role in fixed income strategies for investors seeking enhanced income from non-investment grade securities with controlled duration exposure.
