The Eaton Vance Short Duration Diversified Income Fund (EVG) has been downgraded to 'Hold' due to stretched valuations after a 13% total return in 2024. The fund's portfolio is stable but faces risks from tight credit spreads.
The downgrade to 'Hold' suggests that the fund's current valuation is not attractive for new investors. The tight credit spreads increase the risk of a decline in NAV and price if market conditions worsen, which could negatively impact the fund's performance.
