SCHR

The Schwab Intermediate‑Term U.S. Treasury ETF (SCHR) invests almost exclusively in U.S. government debt, holding fixed‑rate, investment‑grade Treasury securities with remaining maturities between three and ten years. Its strategy is passive, seeking to replicate the total return of the Bloomberg U.S. Treasury 3‑10 Year Index by sampling the securities that comprise the index and keeping at least 90 % of assets in those holdings. Because it provides exposure to the intermediate portion of the Treasury yield curve, the fund offers relatively low‑volatility income and capital‑preservation characteristics, making it suitable for conservative investors, retirees, or anyone looking to add a stable, government‑bond component to a diversified portfolio.
