About SHOCX
American Beacon SiM High Yield Opportunities Fund Class C is an open‑end mutual fund focused on the U.S. and global **high yield** bond market. Its primary objective is to deliver **high current income**, with a secondary goal of capital appreciation, by investing predominantly in **non‑investment‑grade** debt and related instruments that provide exposure to below‑investment‑grade credit. The portfolio has flexibility across the capital structure and may hold foreign issuers, including **emerging markets**, as well as occasional equity positions arising from debt restructurings. Managed under the American Beacon platform with subadvisory expertise, the fund employs a diversified approach that spans sectors sensitive to the credit cycle and aims to capture spread income while managing default and liquidity risks. Within the fixed income landscape, it serves as a specialized credit allocation for investors seeking exposure to **high yield bonds** with monthly income distributions, complementing core bond holdings and potentially enhancing portfolio income relative to investment‑grade strategies.
