What is the definition of High Yield

High yield bonds (also known as junk bonds) burst into fashion in the 1980s, with Drexel Burnham Lambert and Michael Milken being the earliest pioneers.

A high yield bond usually has a very high interest rate (typically 3% or more) but is rated as being below investment grade, i.e. very risky.
