Description: VUSB Ultra-Short Bond Shares March 01, 2026

VUSB is an ultra-short bond ETF that invests primarily in high-quality (and to a lesser extent medium-quality) fixed-income securities, aiming for a dollar-weighted average maturity of 0-2 years.

According to the most recent fund factsheet (Feb 2026), the ETF’s weighted-average credit rating is A-, its 30-day SEC yield is 4.85%, and its expense ratio remains at a low 0.10%.

The fund’s performance is heavily influenced by short-term interest-rate dynamics; the Federal Reserve’s recent policy pause and easing inflation expectations have helped keep short-term yields relatively stable.
