SGOV Stock Recent News

Finding ETFs for long-term growth should be your priority if you're a newer investor. Even for those actively trading stocks to beat the marketing, holding a basket of ETFs for diversification is the best way to balance a portfolio and protect against sector-specific risk.

The yield curve is in an unusual shape, prompting investors to seek safety in the short term. SGOV is a safe investment option for those looking to capture high yields with little risk. Investors should be cautious about extending duration, especially given the uncertainty with the Fed Funds Rate.

1-month and 3-month treasuries are yielding greater than 5%. The iShares 0-3 Month ETF has high liquidity, a low expense ratio, and a strong 12-month total return. Given sticky consumer price inflation and a hot September retail sales figure, I believe yields remain high through the end of the year.
