Why? it is not Pimco at blame (or mostly not..) - it is the PHK buyers and holders who chose to ignore risks and pay 40-5-6- and 70% above NAV for no logical reason whatsoever.

This is not investment advice. As a retiree who values sleep, I have no desire to be a junk bond speculator. I'll leave that to the professionals.
