PFFD: Same Risks Of Ultra-Long Duration

The Global X US Preferred ETF appears to be a duration bet, appearing also to be unmitigated in that way by much constituent floating-rate debt, sampling top holdings. Rising benchmark rates associated with persistent inflation from geopolitical tensions and AI datacenter spending create a challenging macro backdrop for PFFD's fixed income profile. Credit spreads remain low but could widen in theory should the economy get significantly worse, though many of the stocks in PFFD are industries without too many lumpy or unprofitable economics.

PFFD: Lagging Competitors In A Lagging ETF Category

The Global X U.S. Preferred ETF continues its downtrend in asset value and distributions. The ETF offers a low expense ratio among peers but lags in total return, risk-adjusted performance, and dividend growth. I maintain a "Sell" rating on PFFD, suggesting VRP and PFXF as more attractive alternatives for preferred stock exposure.
