TFLO: Strong Cash ETF, Marginally Higher Yield Than T-Bills

TFLO invests in floating rate treasury notes, securities broadly comparable to T-bills. Credit risk and interest rate risk are both almost zero, share prices stable. Despite potential Fed rate cuts, TFLO's stable performance and good yield make it a compelling investment option for low-risk portfolios.

ETF Strategies to Play Amid Rising Treasury Yields

TFLO: I Just Signed Up Again For 5% With Minimal Price Risk

Over the past 3 years, TFLO has outperformed many popular ETFs with minimal price risk, making it a reliable income investment. I prefer TFLO due to its floating rate US Treasury notes with 1-3 year maturities, offering stability and above-average yields. With a dearth of attractive stock opportunities, my portfolio now holds nearly 40% in T-bill ETFs, cash, and TFLO entering 2025.

TFLO: In An Uncertain World, Floating Rate Treasuries Deliver

The Federal Reserve has cut rates by roughly 100 bps in 2024, pushing down yields across the front end of the curve and leading investors to explore riskier alternatives. Floating Rate Notes, or FRNs, are short-term, low-risk treasury instruments with weekly rate resets tied to the 13-week T-bill rate. The iShares TFLO ETF exclusively holds FRNs, offering a zero-duration profile. Unlike funds employing complex risk strategies, TFLO consistently provides a stable yield (4.69% 30-day SEC) with virtually no volatility, even during market stress.

TFLO: Major Oil Roadblock To Inflation May Be Overcome

The iShares Treasury Floating Rate Bond ETF may face lower yields as inflation pressures ease due to China's economic slowdown and oil price declines.

TFLO: As Descriptive As It Gets For Floating Rate Treasuries

iShares Treasury Floating Rate Bond ETF offers investors a way to preserve capital and maintain a steady income stream during rising interest rate cycles. TFLO primarily invests in U.S. Treasury bonds with variable interest rates, making its movement unaffected by rate increases. The Fund's exclusive focus on U.S. Treasury securities limits diversification opportunities, but offers protection in a rising rate environment.
