This low-cost index fund invests in U.S. dollar-denominated, investment-grade, fixed-rate, taxable bonds issued by industrial, utility, and financial companies, with maturities between 1 and 5 years. Like other bond funds, one of the fund’s risks is that increases in interest rates cause the prices of the bonds in the portfolio to decrease; however, such risk is less pronounced in this fund than in funds with longer average durations. A key risk of the fund is the fact that changes in interest rates can eventually lead to a decrease in income for the fund. Investors with a short-term savings goal who are willing to accept some price movement may wish to consider this fund.
