Description: PFFD U.S. Preferred

The Global X U.S. Preferred ETF (PFFD) is a passively managed fund that invests at least 80% of its total assets in securities comprising its underlying index, which is designed to track the broad-based performance of the U.S. preferred securities market. The fund also invests at least 80% of its assets in preferred securities that are domiciled in, principally traded in, or whose revenues are primarily derived from the United States.

Preferred securities represent a hybrid class of equity that typically pays fixed or floating-rate dividends and ranks above common stock in the capital structure for dividend payments and liquidation proceeds, giving the fund a blend of equity and fixed-income characteristics. The U.S. preferred securities market includes traditional preferred stock issued by corporations as well as securities issued by financial institutions, making it a distinct segment from the broader U.S. equity market.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Fed rate cuts boost preferred stock prices and yields
  • Bank sector preferred issuance dominates fund holdings
  • Yield-seeking demand rises amid low bond yields
