Mastercard Bets On Cross-Border Payments With $300 Million Corpay Deal

In a world where the vast majority of bond funds are conservative, with treasuries and corporates coming to mind, NYLI MacKay Securitized Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SECR#NYSE">SECR</a>), a structured credit ETF that has $150 million in assets under management, is coloring outside the lines. 
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">This ETF</a> provides individual investors a unique window into institutional-quality exposure in residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), commercial MBS (CMBS) and asset-backed securities (ABS). And whereas most funds have been fluctuating in the recent market winds, this ETF has not just maintained its balance but danced past the storm, providing robust performance and enticing yield.
We sat down with Zachary Aronson, director and research analyst at MacKay Shields, to take a closer look under the hood. And quite frankly, the engine is anything but standard. The ETF is centered on the knowledge of MacKay Shields, a fixed-income giant with about $140 billion in AUM. The fund was launched in May last year and is managed by a team who lives and works structured credit, and it shows.

&#8220;Securitized products — like MBS, CMBS and ABS — offer compelling yield and diversification characteristics, but they're often underrepresented in traditional bond funds,&#8221; said Aronson. &#8220;With SECR, we saw an opportunity to bring institutional-caliber structured credit exposure to the ETF space in a format that's accessible to a broader range of investors.
&#8220;Many fixed income ETFs are heavily concentrated in Treasuries or corporate credit,&#8221; he added, noting that the rationale behind forming SECR was to design a &#8220;core bond solution with a securitized backbone that historically has had lower correlation to equities and corporates.&#8221;
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Why Investors Should Consider SECR</h1>
One standout aspect of <a href="https://www.newyorklifeinvestments.com/etf/nyli-mackay-securitized-income-etf-secr/#distributionyields">SECR </a>is active management, a rarity in a market where ETFs often operate on autopilot. And according to Aronson, that's not just a feature — it's the fund's superpower. 
"Structured products are incredibly diverse, with complexity that doesn't lend itself well to a rules-based index. Active management lets us be selective — adjusting exposures across sectors, coupons or deal vintages in real time. During volatility, we're not forced to follow an index down — we can shift into higher-quality tranches, move up in capital structure, or lean into mispriced opportunities. That flexibility has been key in managing risk while seeking to capture upside," he said.
Retail investors tend to avoid structured credit just because it sounds very hard and a bit scary. But SECR was made as straightforward as possible. Shedding light on that, Aronson said, &#8220;We designed SECR to be a single-ticker solution, so investors don't need to pick and choose between MBS, CMBS or ABS themselves. Ultimately, we want investors to understand why the fund is positioned a certain way and how that ties back to macro trends they're already familiar with —like mortgage rates, consumer credit and commercial real estate.&#8221;
And that strategy has been paying off. Amid volatility, SECR hasn't just protected capital, it's generated alpha. Aronson said that leaning into seasoned RMBS securities with compelling yields that are better buffered against an economic recession made that possible. This apart, &#8220;underpriced CMBS bonds with a combination of property types behind them, and a diversified basket of ABS bonds with what we view as strong structural protections&#8221; were also key factors.
Aronson believes that some real estate collateral in CMBS bonds are incorrectly priced and presents good relative value. He also noted the sector is under stress, which is why SECR actively underwrites the credit on all securities. &#8220;We think housing is resilient, especially within seasoned securities where loan-to-value ratios are very low compared to when they were issued,&#8221; he added.
On the ABS side — cars, credit cards, etc. — the team is moving with surgical exactness.
&#8220;The latest trends show a weakening consumer with delinquencies on the higher end, this drives us to be very specific in deal selection where we can target certain collateral types and potential structural protections.  That being said we do not see the consumer being overleveraged to the same extent as the Great Financial Crisis,&#8221; Aronson said.
But discussing triggers and the macro events that can reverse the risk-reward ratio, he said, &#8220;Fed pivot can be the driver of spread compression and price appreciation — but potentially also macro stress rising, particularly in labor markets. If unemployment meaningfully increases, you will see pressure across consumer ABS and housing assets.&#8221; SECR portfolio is constructed for risk management purposes, targeting &#8220;downside protection by structure and seasoning, not only yield,&#8221; Aronson added.
Security selection and knowledge of the subtle risk in different subsectors sets SECR apart from its traditional bond ETF competitors. Aronson said there can be major inconsistencies in risk within the ABS, CMBS and RMBS sectors. Having full access to the securitized market (not just the liquid names), helps SECR seek value where others may not be looking.
Bottom Line
For investors seeking yield with a differentiated risk profile, SECR provides a compelling, actively managed solution amid uncertain fixed-income markets.
&#8220;We consider this is a rare window where securitized credit is offering compelling spread without having to reach far down in quality. We think SECR is a smart way to participate while being thoughtful about risk,&#8221; said Aronson.

Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) has announced the launch of a standalone AI app that will compete with the likes of OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT, Google&#8217;s Gemini <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/xai">and xAI&#8217;s Grok</a>. 
What To Know: Meta on Tuesday unveiled the Meta AI app built with Llama 4, designed to give users a more personal AI experience.

The company repurchased around 0.6 million shares during the quarter.

We are making proactive and strategically consistent adjustments to our delivery path due to these external conditions.&#8221;
&#8221;We look to continue to outperform our end markets as we work to convert our strong new business wins, which all leverage our One Ecolab growth initiative and our record innovation pipeline.&#8221;

Late last week, Valero Energy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLO#NYSE">VLO</a>) reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44977776/valero-posts-higher-than-expected-profit-despite-sharp-refining-margin-decline">better-than-declined quarterly profits</a>.
So far this year, the company's stock has underperformed its closest peer, Marathon Petroleum Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPC#NYSE">MPC</a>) by around 6%. It also underperformed the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>) by about 3%, according to Goldman Sachs.
The Valero Energy Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/586f95cd72b34c0001c9b160/neil-mehta">Analyst Neil Mehta</a> upgraded the rating from Sell to Neutral, while raising the price target from $115 to $127.
The Valero Energy Thesis: Many of the headwinds that resulted in the stock's underperformance are now reversing, Mehta said in the upgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
The analyst stated three reasons for the upgrade:
<ul>
<li>Following consensus revisions, expectations better reflect "the deceleration in refining profitability with VLO 2025 EPS having been negatively revised by ~50% over the last year," he said.</li>
<li>The crude environment seems to be improving and the OPEC had begun adding barrels into the market, Mehta mentioned. "We believe the incremental heavy barrels should support more favorable crude differentials and support margins at Valero," he further wrote.</li>
<li>Although the demand environment in uncertain, the supply side is faced with larger refining closures.</li>
</ul>
"We additionally highlight the company's relatively healthy balance sheet and strong cash flow generation which we believe supports the company's continued commitment to shareholder returns," Mehta said.
Price Action: Shares of Valero Energy had risen by 0.32% to $115.14 at the time of publication on Tuesday.
