He called PIMCO about this. It is an expensive ETF, like 75 basis points. A global ETF. They can’t do less than 50% investment grade. Emerging markets there and high yield that he wouldn’t normally go to. But, it is PIMCO. He wouldn’t buy it for retirees’ clients. The Management team knows what is doing. If the risk tolerance was there and time horizon is there, he would consider them.
Basically it's an ETF version of a mutual fund. All fixed-income and pays a yield over 3%. You can park money here until you figure what to invest in next.
A safe way to play the fixed income side of a portfolio. This company roams the world looking for opportunities in the fixed income market. It has produced very good long-term returns, and he would recommend it.
