Description: YEAR AB Ultra Short Income January 15, 2026
The AB Ultra Short Income ETF (NYSE ARCA: YEAR) is an actively-managed ultra-short bond fund that invests mainly in U.S. Treasury and investment-grade corporate fixed-income securities. Its mandate targets a dollar-weighted average duration of under one year, though it retains flexibility to hold securities of any maturity, including mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, CDs, and commercial paper.
Key metrics (as of the latest filing) show an expense ratio of roughly 0.30%, assets under management near $350 million, and a 30-day SEC yield around 4.2%, reflecting the current level of short-term interest rates. The fund’s performance is highly sensitive to Federal Reserve policy moves; a 25 bps shift in the Fed funds rate typically translates into a comparable swing in the fund’s yield, while credit spread tightening can modestly boost returns. Additionally, demand for cash-equivalent assets during periods of market volatility tends to increase inflows into ultra-short ETFs, supporting liquidity and pricing efficiency.
