The Fund employs a passive management or indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the Barclays Capital U.S. 1-3 Year Government Float Adjusted Index (the Index). This Index includes fixed-income securities issued by the United States Treasury (not including inflation-protected securities) and the United States Government agencies and instrumentalities, as well as corporate or dollar-denominated foreign debt guaranteed by the United States Government, all with maturities between 1 and 3 years. The Fund invests by sampling the Index, meaning that it holds a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full Index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics. The Fund’s investment advisor is Vanguard Fixed Income Group.Read More VGSH Stock Price History View Price History Chart DataSkip Price History Chart 30 days | 90 days | 365 days | Advanced Chart VGSH ETF News HeadlinesMay 29, 2024 | seekingalpha.comVGSH: A Disappointing YieldApril 17, 2024 | seekingalpha.comVanguard Short-Term Bond Index Fund ETF SharesMarch 28, 2024 | msn.comVanguard Short-Term Treasury ETF declares monthly distribution of $0.2019March 24, 2024 | msn.comWarren Buffett’s Winning Formula: The Power of the “2-Fund” Portfolio StrategyMarch 14, 2024 | markets.businessinsider.com5 Things You Need To Know About Vanguard ETFs: Why There's No Bitcoin ETF In Their Lineup?March 1, 2024 | msn.comVanguard Short-Term Treasury ETF declares monthly distribution of $0.1927February 24, 2024 | benzinga.comVanguard Short-Term Treasury ETF (NASDAQ:VGSH), Quotes and News SummaryFebruary 11, 2024 | seekingalpha.comVGSH: A Good Short-Term Fix To Portfolio VolatilitySee More Headlines Receive VGSH Stock News and Ratings via Email Sign-up to receive the latest news and ratings for Vanguard Short-Term Treasury Index ETF and its competitors with MarketBeat's FREE daily newsletter.
