Cheap Credit“Families with wealth of $100 million or more can borrow at less than 1%,” said Dan Gimbel, principal at NEPC Private Wealth....Yachts and private jets have been especially popular buys in the past year

Some private banks offer mortgages on homes for as long as 20 years with fixed interest rates as low as 1% for the period.
Oh, my bad. As the thread is about OSTIX, a HYB fund, I guess I incorrectly assumed that any comparisons/suggestions would be HYB funds.Obviously the Diamond Hill HY team is great, I've been with them for years and very happy. My existing Brandywine fund (LFLAX) has been just as great in its own right.
You might want to explain what you mean by "just as great in its own right." It must include metrics beyond TR but I'm not seeing how any other metrics could cause someone to see these two HYB funds as "equally great."
TR 1yr, 3 yr, 5yr, Life
DHHIX: 17.3%, 10.6%, 10.3%, 9.1%
LFLAX: 5.6%, 7.0%, 5.9%, 6.2%
LFLAX is not a HY fund. It's a multisector bond fund. Compare it to its category and you will better understand my comment.

The change to the fund’s name is being effected as part of a rebranding of Legg Mason funds subadvised by Brandywine Global Investment Management, LLC (“Brandywine Global”). Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisor, LLC continues to serve as the investment manager to the fund, and Brandywine Global continues to serve as subadviser. The fund’s investment objectives, strategies and policies are not changing as a result of the name change.
