Description: FLUD Liberty Ultra Short Bond January 18, 2026

Franklin Liberty Ultra Short Bond ETF (FLUD) seeks to hold at least 80 % of its net assets in bond-related securities, targeting an average portfolio duration of one year or less. The fund’s focus is on U.S. dollar-denominated, investment-grade debt, but it may also allocate a modest portion to foreign dollar-denominated securities, including emerging-market issuers.

As of the most recent filing, FLUD reports an expense ratio of 0.20 % and a weighted-average yield of roughly 4.6 % (30-day SEC yield). Its assets under management (AUM) sit near $250 million, and the portfolio’s average credit rating is A- (S&P), indicating a high-quality, low-default risk composition.

The fund’s performance is tightly linked to short-term interest-rate dynamics. A rising Federal Funds rate compresses the spread between ultra-short corporate bonds and Treasury bills, while inflation expectations and the pace of Fed tightening directly affect the fund’s yield and total return. Additionally, credit-spread tightening in the investment-grade sector can boost price appreciation, whereas widening spreads-often triggered by geopolitical or macro-economic stress-pose downside risk.
