PIMCO's actively managed BOND ETF offers a diversified portfolio with a focus on intermediate maturities, outperforming passive funds like BND over the past decade. Active management by PIMCO has consistently delivered superior returns, leveraging market insights and flexibility to navigate economic changes.

ETF of the Week: PIMCO Active Bond ETF (BOND)

The PIMCO Active Bond ETF has outperformed its benchmark through an actively managed strategy. We contrast BOND against comparable passively-managed indexed-ETFs. The fund's expense ratio is elevated but can be justified based on the wider dividend yield and potential for excess returns.

By: Nolan Mauk In the post-pandemic era marked by economic uncertainty, volatility, geopolitical tension, and deglobalization, one thing has been made clear: no market, sector, or asset class is immune to the effects of rapidly changing market cycles.

All-Seasons Investing: The Case for a Diversified Asset Allocation

Bonds have struggled as investors digest interest rate news, but rates are expected to be cut in 2024. PIMCO Active Bond Exchange-Traded Fund has struggled in the face of rising rates and failed to beat indexed competitors or money markets. The flexibility and freedom of PIMCO's investment mandates have contributed to its outperformance in other funds, but BOND is limited in how it can invest.

BOND: Does This Active Bond Fund Deliver?

Diversification and active management are key principles in bond investing, and the PIMCO Active Bond Exchange-Traded Fund ETF offers both. The BOND ETF has a solid performance track record, outperforming its benchmark in most relevant time periods. The BOND fund provides extensive diversification across various bond sub-asset classes, but investors should be aware of the associated risks.

While 2023 was the year of Fed rate hikes, the fixed income market is expecting 2024 to be the year of rate cuts. At the December 2023 meeting, the Federal Reserve's own guidance was for three 25 basis point reductions in 2024.

Advisors More Conservative About Rate Cuts

The PIMCO Active Bond ETF has outperformed passive bond ETFs with a 2.0% total return since the previous article vs. 1.7%. The BOND ETF has reduced credit exposure and increased exposure to mortgage-backed securities due to attractive mortgage spreads and unattractive credit spreads. The Fed's shift to a dovish stance and potential rate cuts provide a favorable outlook for the BOND ETF.

Chart of the Week: Benefits of Active and Passive Bond Funds

BOND has a growing 3.8% dividend yield, low credit risk, but moderate interest rate risk. It seems like a reasonable investment for more conservative income investors and retirees, but compares unfavorably to some of its peers. An overview of the fund follows.

BOND: Diversified Investment-Grade Bond ETF, Uncompelling Value Proposition

PIMCO Active Bond ETF invests in a mix of government, mortgage, and corporate bonds, making it a good addition to a stock and bond portfolio. It's generally less volatile than long-term bonds and bond funds because most of its bonds mature in 5-10 years. The fund has a distribution yield of roughly 5% and allocates 60% of its assets to mortgage-backed securities, but without leveraging, making it less risky than mREITs.
