BND: Preferable To Treasuries As Duration Risk Rises

Bonds are back this year after a dismal performance in 2022. With attractive yields continuing to draw investors in, the NEOS Enhanced Income Aggregate Bond ETF (BNDI) is worth consideration, given its high, tax-efficient income potential and first-half outperformance over the broad bonds market.
