BlackRock Ultra Short-Term Bond ETF

The JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF holds high-quality bonds and commercial paper and is marketed as a cash replacement tool. JPST has higher duration and credit risk than ICSH. However, investors are compensated for the higher risk. JPST continues to be a solid cash replacement tool, provided the Fed is not forced to restart rate hikes due to a rebound in inflation.

The JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF holds high-quality bonds and commercial paper and is marketed as a cash replacement tool. With the Fed set to begin cutting interest rates in September, JPST's duration exposure should continue to act as a tailwind for the fund, allowing it to outperform cash. However, a slowing economy also means credit risks are rising. Investors should closely monitor credit spreads for signs of stress.

JPMorgan Ultra-Short Income ETF is an actively-managed income ETF by JPMorgan. It is quite similar to T-bills, with slightly higher risk, and slightly higher returns. Although the JPST ETF has performed well in the past, its current 5.0% dividend yield is simply not competitive. Other investments seem stronger than JPST, including T-bills, BOXX, and JAAA.

Short-term yield funds like the JPST ETF are marketed as cash replacement tools. The JPST ETF underperformed money market funds in 2023 due to rising interest rates.
