  • Yield – The income you earn from an investment, shown as a percentage.

  • Floating-rate Treasuries – Government bonds that adjust interest payments based on current rates.

  • Short-term corporate bonds – Loans to companies that get paid back in 1–3 years, with interest.

  • Actively managed – A professional team picks investments, aiming to outperform the market.

  • Ultra-short bonds – Bonds that mature in under a year, helping reduce risk.

  • Volatility – How much an investment’s price moves. Lower volatility = smoother ride.

Not all stocks pay out dividends. And there’s no guarantee any stock will pay dividends in a quarter or year. Dividends may be subject to additional taxes, and are considered taxable income. Refer to the IRS for additional info.
