The Global X Ultra-Short Term Investment Grade Bond ETF (HFR), as reviewed by market experts, is recognized as a defensive investment option tailored for those seeking stability in uncertain market climates. This ETF focuses on short-term floating rate corporate bonds in both Canadian and US markets, which contributes to its resilience during significant downturns, notably those observed in 2018 and 2022. Experts highlight its impressive ability to preserve value while maintaining a yield of 2.7%, appealing to conservative investors looking to safeguard their capital. The ETF's largest three-month drawdown is a modest 4%, reinforcing its status as a secure cash alternative. Analysts recommend setting a stop at $9.50 and aim for a price target of $12.00, indicating an attractive upside potential of 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.
