In short: A baby-bond income add — bought when yielding ~15%; the kind of small (~$200–300M) 8–9%+ high-coupon, short-maturity issue at the core of the book, yielding ~400 bps above where 81% of the world's bonds trade.

In plain English

CTBB (and its sibling CTDD) are "baby bonds" — small bonds that trade on the stock exchange like a share, here issued by the QVC/Qurate shopping-network group. The house bought them when they yielded about 15%.

They're the core of the income book: small (~$200–300 million) issues that big funds can't be bothered with, paying 8–15% with short maturities. Because the coupons are so high and they mature soon, their prices barely move when interest rates rise — unlike low-coupon, long-dated "safe" bonds, which can fall a lot.
