The J.P. Morgan Leveraged Loan Index returned 1.93% in the second quarter of 2026, with riskier B/CCC-rated issuers leading gains at 3.37%. The broader market showed recovery after a cautious first quarter, driven by improved investor sentiment amid reassessed economic risks and sector durability. A related fund outperformed its benchmark, returning 2.10% versus 1.85%. This suggests growing confidence in leveraged loans as an investment amid ongoing economic uncertainties.
