Good? I have no idea but this is unhedged and seemed to pay well recentky: EMLC I tend to avoid ungedged for bonds but not otgerwise. Last year unhedged was good for this ETF. About a year ago i bought this hedged international bond etf: JPIB It’s not cheap (0.50%) but it seems well managed

I'm retired and spend at least some of my dividends each month. This may or may not be appropriate for everyone, but I moved more money into IDVO and EFAA earlier this year. Been great so far. I also hold JPIB, but those are bonds. My NDIV is 1/3 outside the US as well. And, of course, there's always things like Bitcoin if you want to do that.

Gold. Foreign bonds... I am slowly increasing my allocation to foreign bond etfs like JPIB.

Yep. Today sucks for some things, but when I look at my TLT, IEF, JPIB, SPIB, etc... it helps a bit. And then there's my little pile of SGOV always giving me a warm blanket and a hot chocolate.

Sounds like you have some budget for market exposure but don't want double digit volatility. Multisector bonds - a bit more credit exposure than investment grade bonds, less than full high yield. PONAX PTIAX GTO FADMX JPIB GIOPX.
