About NCOAX
Nuveen High Yield Income Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to provide investors with current income and opportunities for capital appreciation. The fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of debt instruments such as bonds and loans, with a significant emphasis on securities rated below investment grade, often referred to as high-yield or "junk" bonds. By focusing on lower-rated debt, the fund aims to capture higher yields than those typically available from investment grade bonds, but this approach also involves greater exposure to credit and economic risks. Nuveen High Yield Income Fund Class A maintains a broad allocation across U.S. and U.S. dollar-denominated international debt securities, seeking to balance income generation with risk management. It typically holds a substantial number of positions, with over 200 holdings as of the latest reports. The fund distributes income monthly and is managed actively to respond to changing market conditions and credit environments. As part of the broader high yield bond category, it serves investors seeking elevated income streams, playing a significant role for those aiming to diversify their fixed income portfolios and capture higher yields within the bond market.
