Description: SHYL Xtrackers Short Duration October 29, 2025

The Xtrackers Short Duration High Yield Bond ETF (NYSE ARCA: SHYL) seeks to track an index of short-term, U.S.-dollar-denominated, below-investment-grade corporate bonds. By policy, at least 80 % of its net assets are invested in the index’s component securities, and in practice the allocation is usually considerably higher, giving investors exposure to the high-yield segment while limiting interest-rate sensitivity through a short average duration.

Key metrics (as of the latest filing) include an expense ratio of roughly 0.20 % and an average portfolio duration of about 1.2 years, which together suggest modest cost and low price-volatility relative to longer-dated high-yield funds. The fund’s weighted-average credit rating sits near BB-, reflecting the sub-investment-grade focus, and its yield-to-maturity typically ranges between 5.5 % and 7 % depending on market spreads. Economic drivers that materially affect performance are the Federal Reserve’s short-term rate policy, corporate default trends in the high-yield universe, and sector-specific credit cycles-particularly in energy, telecom and consumer discretionary, which historically dominate the short-duration high-yield space.

If you want a data-rich, side-by-side comparison of SHYL’s risk-adjusted returns versus peers, the ValueRay platform offers a transparent dashboard that can help you quantify whether its short-duration profile aligns with your current macro outlook.
