PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF is a diversified, ultrashort and short-duration bond strategy, providing investors with monthly income.

PULS: Uncompelling At The Current Spreads (Rating Downgrade)

The PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF is downgraded to 'Hold' due to tight corporate spreads and a low risk premium. PULS holds highly rated bonds with a 0.2-year duration, primarily AA names, and offers a 4.8% 30-day SEC yield. Current corporate spreads are at decade lows, making PULS less attractive compared to alternatives like JAAA and UYLD.
