Schwab Long-Term U.S. Treasury ETF

The Motley Foolwww.fool.com

The Schwab Long-Term U.S. Treasury ETF (SCHQ) and State Street SPDR Portfolio Long Term Corporate Bond ETF (SPLB) offer different approaches to long-duration bond investing. SCHQ focuses exclusively on U.S. Treasuries with a lower expense ratio (0.03%), while SPLB invests in investment-grade corporate bonds with higher yields (5.2% vs 4.5%) and broader diversification across nearly 3,000 holdings. SPLB has outperformed SCHQ over the past year and showed better resilience during market downturns, making it potentially more attractive for 2026 if interest rates decline.
