PGIM Short Duration High Yield Fund NAV Per Share Snapshot

TradingView tracks the net current asset value per share for PGIM's short duration high yield fund trading on NASDAQ as XISDX.

If you've been keeping an eye on fixed-income closed-end funds, PGIM Short Duration High Yield Fund, Inc. — ticker XISDX on the NASDAQ — is one worth watching. TradingView is currently tracking the fund's net current asset value (NAV) per share, along with its day-over-day change and percentage move, giving investors a quick read on how the fund's underlying assets are holding up.

NAV per share is basically the "true value" of a single share based on what the fund actually owns minus what it owes, divided by total shares outstanding.
