My First Look At UFIV: Focus Is 5-Year USTs
I rate UFIV a Hold due to uncertainty in interest rates and better-performing 5-year Treasury ETFs like XFIV with lower costs. UFIV offers a 3.9% yield, but this is less than 5-year CDs and peer ETFs, though interest is exempt from state taxes. Shorter-duration Treasury ETFs have outperformed recently, but this could shift if the Fed cuts rates and inflation remains controlled.
