yield chaser

yield chaser definition - finance
A person who buys financial investments only because they offer high yields or interest rates. A yield chaser often doesnÂ’t determine whether the investment is a safe or prudent one, which may prove to be a costly mistake in the long run, as the yield may drop drastically.
