 SPDR Barclays High Yield Bond

Is the sky going to fall because junk bonds fall 1.4%? Junk Bond ETF (ARCA:JNK) has been in the news of late, due to recent softness. Should we be concerned? Some seem to think so.

The lower inset chart does reflect that JNK has lagged (ARCA:SPY) by almost 2.4% over the past 30 days. Is JNK breaking down? At this time, JNK remains above the rising support that started in October of 2011.

In my opinion, how JNK handles rising support in the next few weeks to come is much more important than what JNK has done over the past 30 days.
