Our read on UFIV
BOne bond, one ticker. UFIV holds the most recently auctioned 5-year Treasury note and rolls into the new one at each auction, pinning you to a single point on the curve instead of a blended bucket of maturities.
The fund seeks results that generally correspond to the performance of its benchmark, the Bloomberg US Treasury Bellwether 5Y Total Return USD Unhedged Index.
Why people hold it
- Single-security design: it owns the current on-the-run 5-year Treasury note and rolls automatically at each new auction, so the exposure stays at the 5-year tenor.fminvest.com
- Aims to pay dividends at least monthly, a more frequent cadence than the semiannual coupons on the underlying note.fminvest.com
- Tracks its Bloomberg 5Y Treasury bellwether index tightly, which is the whole job when the benchmark is effectively one bond.
Worth knowing
- 0.15% a year sits at the category median, but broad intermediate Treasury baskets like SPTI and SCHR charge 0.03%.
- One holding means no spread across maturities: the price tracks the 5-year yield in both directions, with duration parked near five years.fminvest.com
- A small, thinly traded fund, so bid-ask spreads carry more weight at the moment of the trade than they do in the giant Treasury ETFs.
