(PULS) PGIM Ultra Short Bond - Ratings and Ratios
Bonds, Short-Term, Investment Grade, Dollar-Denominated
Description: PULS PGIM Ultra Short Bond October 30, 2025
The PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF (NYSE ARCA:PULS) focuses on investment-grade, U.S.-dollar short-term debt, allocating at least 80 % of assets to bonds with maturities that keep the weighted-average portfolio duration at ≤ 1 year and the weighted-average maturity at ≤ 3 years. While the fund can hold securities of any term, its mandate emphasizes low-duration exposure to limit interest-rate risk under normal market conditions.
Key metrics (as of the latest filing) include an expense ratio of 0.20 %, a 30-day SEC yield around 4.6 % and assets under management of roughly $1.2 billion. The ETF’s performance is closely tied to Federal Reserve policy-especially short-term rate moves-and to the health of the investment-grade corporate bond market, where credit spreads and cash-management demand drive supply and pricing dynamics.
