PULS: Uncompelling At The Current Spreads (Rating Downgrade)
The PGIM Ultra Short Bond ETF is downgraded to 'Hold' due to tight corporate spreads and a low risk premium. PULS holds highly rated bonds with a 0.2-year duration, primarily AA names, and offers a 4.8% 30-day SEC yield. Current corporate spreads are at decade lows, making PULS less attractive compared to alternatives like JAAA and UYLD.

PULS: Top Quartile Short-Term Bond Fund
PULS ETF is a top-quartile short-term bond fund investing in treasuries, commercial paper, and money market instruments. JAAA ETF has higher credit quality, historical performance, and distribution yield compared to PULS, but is more credit-sensitive. I personally prefer the safety of treasury bill funds or the higher returns of the JAAA ETF over PULS.
