The Global X Ultra-Short Term Investment Grade Bond ETF (HFR-T) is recognized for its defensive characteristics, primarily investing in short-term floating rate corporate bonds from Canada and the US. Experts highlight its consistency and resilience in times of severe market downturns, citing past performance during 2018 and 2022 as especially notable. The ETF has a maximum three-month drawdown of only 4%, indicating a commendable ability to preserve capital. With a current yield of 2.7%, it is seen as a secure option for parking cash while still generating income. Analysts recommend setting a stop-loss at $9.50 and targeting a price of $12.00, which suggests an upside potential of approximately 15%.
Basically this is a swap-based bond ETF. Very little price movement. It’s a good place to park money if you are a little bit concerned of what interest rates are going to do.
John HoodThe price of this never moves. It’s $10.10 or $10.20. Because it is SWAP based, he didn’t pile into it too much because a lot of people are a little reluctant dealing with SWAPS. He has been using this for a couple of years now and it just doesn’t budge. Right now, with some question about interest-rate volatility, he is quite happy to be in it. Dull as dishwater but he likes dull for the next few months if there is some volatility, and then he can come out and be his usual predatory self.

An engineered product that should look like a short term note. A place to hide but get some extra return.
