Description: VUSB Vanguard Ultra-Short Bond November 06, 2025
The Vanguard Ultra-Short Bond ETF (VUSB) holds a diversified mix of primarily high-quality, and to a lesser extent medium-quality, fixed-income securities, targeting a dollar-weighted average maturity of 0-2 years. In normal market conditions, at least 80 % of its assets are allocated to these short-duration bonds, positioning the fund as a cash-like investment with modest income potential.
Key metrics as of the latest reporting period include an expense ratio of 0.07 %, a 30-day SEC yield around 4.8 %, and total net assets exceeding $7 billion. The ETF’s performance is closely tied to Federal Reserve policy-short-term interest-rate moves and credit-spread dynamics drive its yield and price stability. Its holdings are weighted toward investment-grade corporate paper and Treasury bills, providing a balance of credit quality and liquidity.
