Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF
BND - US bonds
BND aims to track the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Float Adjusted Index, a broad, market-weighted index of taxable investment grade bonds issued by the US Treasury, US Government agencies, and corporations. The index excludes TIPS and municipal bonds. Investments in BND are appropriate for investors seeking long-term income. Because most of the return of bond funds comes from dividends, they can be tax inefficient. BND is subject to interest-rate risk; changes in interest rates can affect both the price and the level of income provided by the fund.
When BND declines in value, we’ll automatically sell it and buy the alternate as part of our tax-loss harvesting strategy.
