But if you believe that the geopolitcal premium is white hot with the 60 day US Iran negotiation expiring with no extensions, then it is best not to lock it in.
As for me, I prefer to buy $iShares 0-3 Month Treasury Bond ETF(SGOV)$ which has a robust 3.6% yield divided into monthly payments. This is because SGOV strictly holds ultra short term US Treasury bills that mature in less than 90 days. If interest rates spike tomorrow, SGOV's share price stays completely flat, shielding my capital from any market selloff.
