(TLT) iShares 20+ Year Treasury - Ratings and Ratios
Treasury Bonds, Government Securities
Description: TLT iShares 20+ Year Treasury September 29, 2025
The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) is required to allocate at least 80 % of its net assets to the securities that compose its benchmark index, and at least 90 % to U.S. Treasury obligations that the manager believes will best replicate that index’s performance. The index tracks public U.S. Treasury securities with a remaining maturity of 20 years or more.
Key quantitative attributes (as of the most recent reporting period) include an expense ratio of 0.15 %, an average effective duration of roughly 20 years, and a weighted-average yield near 4.2 %. The fund manages roughly $80 billion in assets, making it one of the largest long-duration government-bond ETFs. Because its price is highly sensitive to changes in the Federal Reserve’s policy rate and long-term inflation expectations, TLT’s performance tends to diverge sharply from equities during periods of rising rates.
Investors should treat the ETF’s high duration as a double-edged sword: it can deliver sizable capital gains if long-term yields fall, but it also amplifies losses when yields rise. Consequently, the fund’s risk profile is more appropriate for portfolios that can tolerate significant short-term volatility in exchange for exposure to the long end of the Treasury curve.
