SGOV: Rate Cuts, Short Maturity Treasuries, And A Normalizing Yield Curve
SGOV's appeal has diminished due to anticipated Federal Reserve rate cuts, which will likely reduce the fund's distribution. SGOV's stability and low volatility make it a safe cash equivalent, but its future returns are limited by declining interest rates. Broader bond funds like PIMCO's BOND offer better return potential by capitalizing on declining interest rates and longer-term maturities.

SGOV: The Labor Market May Weaken In 2025 While Inflation Rebounds
SGOV is only a good investment if we can safely assume its yield will be above the inflation rate, which has been the case since 2022. The market is bracing for a total 50-75 bps rate cut over the next year, which seems likely given low and falling hiring rates, pointing toward a sustained unemployment increase. Geopolitical risks and potential tariffs could increase inflation, particularly in goods, while service inflation remains elevated due to shortages in skilled jobs.

My Portfolio's Biggest Winners And Losers From A Republican Sweep
The election's swift resolution led to a sharp market reaction; S&P 500 rose ~4.5%, but REITs were weighed down by rising Treasury rates. Trump's victory is seen as inflationary, benefiting REIT fundamentals by suppressing new construction starts due to higher interest rates. My portfolio saw significant movements post-election, with regional banks and energy stocks gaining, while renewables and healthcare REITs faced short-term declines.

SGOV: Short End Still Looks Attractive As Fed Cuts
iShares 0-3 Month Treasury Bond ETF offers a low-risk, short-term investment with a 0.07% expense ratio and a 4.43% return since December 2023. Despite lower nominal yields, short-term government bonds remain attractive due to minimal credit risk and an expected 4.6% annualized return. The Fed's easing of QT and potential rate cuts could stimulate inflation, making short-term bonds preferable over longer-term options like the 10-year Treasury.
