This is a book on high yield investing that is short on details but long on common sense and real life experience. Robert Levine is the founder, former CEO and CIO of Nomura Corporate Research and Asset Management. Prior he worked with junk bonds for 13 years at Kidder Peabody. During his 18,5 years at NCRAM Levine had an 11,5 percent annual return versus the high yield index with a return of 8,7 percent. The Sharpe ratios were 1,24 and 1,01 respectively. For such a long period this is a huge outperformance.A key element to Levine's success was that he managed to combine a rigorous credit analysis with a top-down based view on when to be cautious and when to be risk seeking. When the spreads for the high yield universe gets too slim an investor should decrease his weighting to the asset class and at the same time concentrate on high quality BB-rated bonds. My interpretation is that Levine had an ability to not let greed overshadow stringent analysis and hence he avoided credit losses in bad times ("Just say no!"), but even more importantly he performed an analysis of companies' businesses that was more forward looking than most other junk bond investors. Instead of just searching for the highest yield he sought a combination of coupon income and capital gains from positive change in future corporate fundamentals.What Levine calls his strong horse method is a two-step process where a credit analysis is first performed and then the results are related to the rating and yield of the bond in question. The credit analysis looks to the business risk where Levine search for companies that are market leaders, low cost producers, price leaders with solid management and improving product trends.
