Have anyone heard of high yield bonds? Do u know what are the return for these kind of bonds?

i noticed from a GEindex site that they are involved in high yield bonds. GEindex pays rates of 2% pre day to investors. If they can pay such high premium I just wonder how much they make by dealing in high yield bonds?

Rates of 2% per day are impossible, so the site seems an obvious fraud to me.

As for high yield bonds, here is an explanation.
The interest rate at which a company will be able to issue bonds depends on his credit worthyness. Some companies close to failure succeed in issuing bonds only if they promise a high interest rate (5% or more higher than the going rate for gouvernment bonds). The high interest rate is a compensation for the high risk of the bond, the risk being the failure of the company. In that case *all* the money invested in the bond will be lost.

It is all a question of statistics: some of these companies in distress will come out of their slump, which compensates more than enough for the occasional failure of another in the portfolio.
