FLOT: Floating Through Volatile Markets

FLOT offers a conservative risk/reward profile with a 4.77% 30-day SEC yield and investment-grade exposure. Its short duration of 0.02 years and exposure to highly liquid, investment-grade corporate bonds make it a better risk management tool than T-Bills. The ETF benefits from rising interest rates, with significant exposure to multilateral development banks, reducing credit risk and enhancing liquidity.

FLOT: The Party Is Over (Rating Downgrade)

FLOT's floating rate bonds excel in rising interest rate environments but underperform in easing conditions, prompting a shift from 'Buy' to 'Hold'. The ETF's higher default risk and tight credit spreads make it less appealing compared to short-term bond funds like TBUX. FLOT offers a low 30-day SEC yield of 5.15%, with minimal spread over treasuries and short-term bond funds, reducing its attractiveness.

Weather Rate Volatility With FLOT

iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF is nice to avoid duration risk while benefiting from higher short-term yields amid volatile interest rates. Inflation declines are helped by lower oil prices, and sustained rate cuts are less likely in our view due to ongoing price increases by companies. We think the main chance for victory in the inflation battle is if the slightly lower oil and gas prices shift expectations, which are a persistent anchor above target rates.

FLOT: A Safe Harbour

The iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF is a low Beta, high quality, liquid ETF suitable for most short-term investors. It is designed to preserve wealth, not build it. The high-quality FRNs that FLOT invests in earn a premium yield to T-Bills, despite the fact that they are of similar credit quality. FLOT should continue to outperform money market instruments because the spreads it is locking in today will likely exceed the spreads on offer in a few years' time.
