Our read on TUSB
BAn actively managed ultra-short bond fund in a category dominated by index-tracking T-bill parking spots. Thrivent's bond desk picks the investment-grade paper itself, charges the category's typical price, and sends the income out monthly.
The Fund seeks substantial current income while preserving capital.
Why people hold it
- Active by design: managers select the investment-grade bonds and keep dollar-weighted average maturity at two years or less, instead of tracking an index.investing.com
- 0.20% a year, level with the typical ultra-short bond ETF, for active credit selection rather than an index feed.
- Cash flow lands monthly, and the stated job is plain: substantial current income while preserving capital.
- What it holds lines up closely with what its prospectus says it does, and it stands in the upper half of the ultra-short bond group.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded next to the category's giants, so spreads can be wider and larger orders need more care.
- Index-based rivals undercut it on fees: VUSB at 0.10%, SHV at 0.15%. The 0.20% here buys active management, not a lower sticker.
- It owns corporate credit, not only Treasuries, so the share price moves with rates and credit spreads. This is not a money market fund with a fixed price.investing.com
