VCLT: High Yield And Rate Sensitivity
VCLT tracks the Bloomberg U.S. 10+ Year Corporate Bond Index, managing $15.29B with a low expense ratio of 0.04% and high rate sensitivity. The fund's performance seems to have been influenced by various economic conditions and Fed policies, with significant losses in 2018 and 2022, probably due to rate hikes. Stabilizing economic conditions and potential rate cuts could improve industrial credit quality, making VCLT an attractive option.
