Vanguard Total Bond Market ETF (BND) and Vanguard Intermediate-Term Treasury ETF (VGIT) are both low-cost bond funds from Vanguard, but they have different focuses. BND covers a wider range of the U.S. bond market, while VGIT concentrates on intermediate-term Treasuries. BND has a higher yield of 4.2% compared to VGIT’s 3.9%. Despite BND’s broader diversification and higher yield, VGIT has historically experienced lower drawdowns and less volatility. However, in a potential scenario of falling interest rates, BND could offer higher returns. Overall, BND appears to be a more attractive choice for income-seeking investors.
