Summary
SGOVCL Chart
WEEK: Weekly Payouts Are Highly Overrated
Roundhill Weekly T-Bill ETF offers weekly payouts but carries a higher expense ratio than peers like SGOV, impacting long-term returns. WEEK's weekly distributions do not sufficiently offset its higher fees, making SGOV a better choice for most investors seeking short-term U.S. Treasury exposure. Potential tax benefits from WEEK's return of capital distributions remain unconfirmed, so investors should not rely on this advantage until further clarity is provided.
SGOV - A Perfectly Sensible Place To Park Money
SGOV is designed for low-risk, highly liquid cash management, offering slightly higher returns than a bank account with minimal credit and interest rate risk. It's not a tool for long-term capital growth, but ideal for parking emergency funds or short-term savings within a balanced portfolio. SGOV's structure ensures easy access, negligible spread, and virtually no risk of a redemption cascade, making it reliable in both normal and stressed markets.
SGOV & TLT: A Tale Of Two ETFs And The Duration Trade
The highly anticipated 'duration trade' in long bonds like TLT has underperformed despite the Fed lowering rates by 100bp since their peak. TLT's price hasn't rebounded as expected because its yield hasn't shifted enough, even though short-term rates have declined. In fact, YoY, long rates have risen! I've consistently favored the short end of the curve, particularly the SGOV ETF, which has provided reliable returns during this period. I continue to endorse it moving forward.
