Treasury Bills At 5% Yield: Retail Investors Jump On The Risk-Free Bandwagon
Portfolio Pulse from Piero Cingari
Treasury bills are back in favor with retail investors as yields surpass the 5% mark for maturities from one month to two years. This is due to the Federal Reserve's decision to increase rates, which has led to a shift of funds from stagnant bank accounts to cash-like securities. Notable bond ETFs investing in Treasury bills include iShares 0-3 Month Treasury Bond ETF (SGOV), Goldman Sachs Access Treasury 0-1 Year ETF (GBIL), and SPDR Bloomberg 3-12 Month T-Bill ETF (BILS).
