Treasury bonds, backed by the U.S. government, are a lower-risk option, offering returns now that many investors may find very attractive. Yet younger investors have been closing investing accounts, making them heavy sellers over the past year — more so than any other generation. A recent survey by Ally Financial finds nearly half of millennials, or 49%, sold all or some of their investments in the 12 months through August.
