The 10 Best ETFs for Retirement Portfolios in 2023


Retirees have unique needs when it comes to their investment portfolios. Here I’ve assembled what I think are the best ETFs for retirement portfolios in 2023. Sample retirement portfolio: Simplified sample retirement portfolio: // TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - Intro - What Retirees Need 02:10 - VT 02:34 - AVUV 03:22 - AVDV 03:40 - GOVT 04:57 - FUTY 05:50 - FSTA 06:16 - STIP 07:05 - SCHH 07:57 - VNQI 08:24 - GLDM 08:59 - Sample Retirement Portfolio 11:01 - Outro // SUMMARY: Obviously, many ETFs are perfectly suitable for both the young investor at age 20 and the retiree at age 60. But the latter has fundamentally different needs. Note that if you’re already using a target date fund, you probably don’t need anything from this list. Diversification and subsequent de-risking of the portfolio become more important when entering retirement. Provided they’ve accumulated enough to cover expenses in retirement, the retiree should almost certainly be sacrificing some returns to lower the portfolio’s volatility and risk. This necessity is largely due to what’s called sequence risk, which refers to the risk that the retiree encounters a bad “sequence” of returns in their first few years, which can derail their entire plan. Since the retiree is withdrawing from the portfolio every year, they don’t have time to recover from protracted bear markets. So how exactly does that translate into ETFs to use in retirement? We’re specifically looking for: - Maximum diversification (particularly, assets that offer a demonstrable diversification benefit) in order to mitigate volatility and risk. - High credit quality bonds, so U.S. treasury bonds. No room for the credit risk, liquidity risk, and default risk of corporate bonds. I explained this here. Even target date funds tend to miss the bullseye here. - “Defensive” stocks. - Low fees. - Direct inflation protection from TIPS. Young investors probably don’t need this. - “Income” funds, maybe. This one hinges on whether the retiree simply wants to sell shares as needed (my preferred method) or use funds with a high dividend/distribution yield to generate “income.” Aside from bond interest, this could be in the form of dividend stocks, REITs, CEFs, covered call option premiums, etc. Thankfully, the ETFs below should satisfy both audiences.
