Historically the ratio of high yield / investment grade bonds have traded alongside the equity market ratio Russell 2000 small-caps / S&P 500 large-caps. During this cycle we've seen an uncharacteristic relative decline in small-caps while high yield bonds outperformed and that has led to the "aligator jaws" divergence that exists today. We believe this is going to mostly correct via a substantial decline in high yield bonds relative to investment grade credit, however this chart also highlights how far S&P 500 large-caps have gotten ahead of relative performance in prior cycles.
