Description: FMHI Municipal High Income

The First Trust Municipal High Income ETF (FMHI) is designed to invest at least 80% of its net assets in municipal debt securities whose interest is exempt from regular federal income taxes. These securities are issued by or on behalf of U.S. states, territories, possessions, the District of Columbia, and their political subdivisions, agencies, authorities, and other instrumentalities.

As a high-yield municipal bond ETF, FMHI focuses on debt instruments issued by state and local governments to fund public projects such as infrastructure, schools, and utilities. The federal tax-exempt status of the interest income is a defining feature of the municipal bond sector, distinguishing it from taxable fixed-income investments. The fund launched in November 2017 and operates as a passively managed ETF listed on NASDAQ.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Rising Treasury yields pressure high-yield muni bond prices lower
  • Federal tax exemption for municipal interest faces policy scrutiny
  • State fiscal stress widens high-yield municipal credit spreads
