Description & usage
The Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury ETF invests in U.S. Treasury bonds with intermediate maturities. This makes it more sensitive to interest-rate changes than short-term funds, while typically offering higher ongoing yields than cash-like products. Returns are driven by coupon income and price movements; rising rates can hurt prices, while falling rates can boost them. The ETF is used to represent intermediate U.S. Treasury exposure within a bond allocation.
