Nice Gundlach idea: Long closed-end high yield/short S&P 500. I put some of it on HIO/SPY.

 

Hmm, I see a number of ways this could blow up.

 

Disclaimer: I don't short.

 

His pair trades have worked out pretty well in the past....but yes, there are risks with shorting.

 

Disclosure: Short SPY

Sure, pair trades always have some blow-up risk. With a mid-term horizon I can only think of one blow-up scenario: an inflationary environment.

 

You could do the less risky version of this, though: sell some stocks and buy some closed-end HY funds to replace them.
