Getting Cautious on Treasuries When Adding Exposure to U.S. Debt
This year, ETF investors have also exhibited a greater willingness to gain exposure to U.S. debt. For example, the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) and the iShares 7-10 Year Treasury Bond ETF (IEF) have seen year-to-date inflows of $1.87 billion and $2.45 billion. In the current market environment, many anticipate the Federal Reserve to step back from its tightening monetary policy.

Play Defense With This Treasury ETF
Ultrasafe investments, like short-term Treasuries, are an effective way to diversify an all-stock portfolio as they tend to hold up well during periods of market distress. Treasuries are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, so they don't carry the credit risk that is embedded in corporate bonds. Schwab Short-Term U.S. Treasury ETF SCHO provides great exposure to these stable assets.

Investors Headed Towards These ETFs After a December to Forget
A December to forget for U.S. equities saw the major indexes reach bottom-feeding levels, but as investors headed for the exits in stocks, a number also sought the entrances for bond funds--particularly of the short-term Treasury variety. The whipsawing of volatility put investors through an economic wash cycle that wrung out the notion that simply staying invested would generate returns--this was not the case as the market fluctuations in the last few months of 2018 shifted investor mindsets from risk-on to risk-off. This shift was evident in the latest State Street Global Advisors (SSGA) report that showed a renewed interest in fixed income, particularly safe havens like government debt, but all in all, fixed-income ETFs benefitted across the board.

With Bond ETFs, Keep It Short Again In 2019
It may not have been easy money, but embracing short-term bonds and the corresponding exchange traded funds has easily been one of this year's most popular fixed-income trades. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates four times in 2018, and while there is speculation the benchmark U.S. interest is getting close to “normal” or “neutral,” there is also chatter that the Fed has a couple more rate hikes in store for 2019. In this rising rate environment, it's unsurprising that this year's most popular bond ETFs are all of the short-term variety.

Short-Term Bond ETFs Still Look Compelling
As the Federal Reserve raised interest rates four times this year, many fixed income investors looked to manage duration risk by embracing low duration bonds and the related exchange traded funds, including the iShares Short Treasury Bond ETF (SHV) and iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF (SHY) . Although the Fed could slow its pace of interest rate increases next year, managing duration risk should still be a priority for bond investors. “With a flat yield curve and relatively tight credit spreads today, you don’t need to take on much interest rate risk or rely on higher-risk assets like stocks to generate income potential,” said BlackRock in a recent note.

What an Inverted Yield Curve Means for Gold
Could Market Risks Bring Investors Back to Gold in 2019? The yield curve tracks the yields of Treasury securities maturing at different times. The narrowing gap between these yields is sometimes called a “flattening yield curve.” If shorter-term security yields become larger than longer-term security yields, that’s called a “yield curve inversion” (BND).

11 Best Short-Term Investments in 2018
Lucky for you, there are plenty of good short-term investment options that can earn you decent returns. A short-term investment, sometimes called a temporary investment or marketable security, is an investment that will yield its returns typically in less than five years (or in some cases within a year). Because of their time frame, short term investments are often safer than long term investments, especially on the stock market.
