This ETF provides broad-based exposure to U.S. Treasuries with a number of different maturities. GOVT separates itself from popular funds like AGG by focusing exclusively on Treasuries, unlike the latter ETF which also includes a mixture of agency and corporate bonds as well. GOVT should not be considered as a core holding however, since Treasuries often make up a significant chunk of broad-based fixed income products such as AGG and BND. This ETF holds a basket of debt securities with a remaining maturity of one or more years; as such, investors who are wary of interest rate risk may wish to tilt exposure towards the short end of the maturity curve with a product like SHY. On the other hand, a product like TLT will be more appropriate for investors who are looking to target long-term Treasuries.
The adjacent table gives investors an individual Realtime Rating for GOVT on several different metrics, including liquidity, expenses, performance, volatility, dividend, concentration of holdings in addition to an overall rating. The "A+ Metric Rated ETF" field, available to ETFdb Pro members, shows the ETF in the Government Bonds with the highest Metric Realtime Rating for each individual field.
