    What about short term treasuries?
    Not much interest in MM either
     
  2. Treasuries pay less. Some of these ETF's pay 1.5% - see the link.

    What's the point of Money Market ETF when you can invest in Money Market directly?
     
  5. actively

    actively

    Depending on the term, I would say.
     
  6. Not familiar with these Money Market ETFs. Is it possible to leverage these instruments?
    If yes, how many times?
     
  7. I do not think any of them are leveraged internally. With your broker, the cost of it would be more than the interest paid IF the broker allowed it.
     
  8. TDA pays nothing on their MM. Vanguard was far better 0.5 %
