SCHO: Wage-Price Spiral Should Be Stalled By Lower Labour Demand

SCHO offers a compelling short-term Treasury exposure with enough rate sensitivity for tactical positioning amid evolving Fed policy. Wage-price spiral risks remain low, and labor market dynamics suggest limited inflation transmission, supporting a constructive duration outlook. Recent economic data and Powell's policy openness favor increasing bets on a cut. There doesn't seem to be a lot of concern around the latest inflation reading.

SCHO: The Case For Rotating Out Of Short-Duration Treasuries

SCHO offers stability and low costs but faces yield curve headwinds, making it less attractive than ultrashort or long-duration Treasuries for income. The Fed is expected to cut rates later in 2025, which could favor long-duration Treasuries over short-term strategies like SCHO for higher yields. SCHO's recent distribution declines and moderate yield highlight its limited income potential compared to long-duration alternatives, such as SCHQ.
