Objective

The Bond ETF folio was developed for investors seeking income and conservative long-term capital preservation.

Strategy

The Bond ETF folio consists of ETFs that invest in a range of fixed income securities.

This folio provides the opportunity to invest in a diversified pool of fixed income investments that are less volatile than an investment in a single bond category. Fixed income securities can provide a source of income and also serve as a hedge against market downturns.

* Returns reflect unfunded model performance from the Inception Date to the present. Your returns may deviate significantly from the values displayed here, due to many factors, including how long after a strategy has been updated that you place orders to update your holdings. No membership or trading fees (other than the indirect cost of the bid-ask spread applicable whenever a transaction is conducted) are included in reported performance.

Note: Tickers and weights for RTG Folios are only available when logged in.

Steps to Create This Folio

  1. We selected all bond category ETFs offered by iShares, created by Barclays Global Investors. These are designed to closely track Bond Market indices. The folio consists primarily of ETFs that invest in different types of investment grade bonds. However, they may also invest in bonds of a lower credit quality.
  2. We equally weighted all ETFs in the folio.

Number of Securities

The number of securities in this folio will vary.

Update Frequency

Quarterly.

If the characteristics of the Folio have changed substantially, the securities included may change. Also, corporate actions, such as a merger, or other events may cause changes to the securities held at any time. Your returns may deviate significantly from the values displayed here, due to many factors, including how long after a folio has been updated that you place orders to update your holdings. RTGs are updated using market data from multiple sources including Zacks Investment Research ( www.zacks.com ), International Data Corporation (IDC) ( www.idc.com ), and other suppliers.
