The ETF.net ZCBA Grade
Score 40 of 100 sits in the C band. Bands: A ≥ 70, B ≥ 55, C ≥ 40, D ≥ 25, F < 25; the scale skips E. A structural cap ceilings this fund at 40, so B and A are out of reach.

Our read on ZCBA
CA single rung of a Treasury ladder in one ticker: zero-coupon STRIPS maturing in 2030, no coupons along the way, and a fund that winds down and pays out its remaining assets on or about November 30, 2030.
The fund seeks to track the FTSE Zero Coupon U.S. Treasury STRIPS 2030 Maturity Index before fees and expenses.
Why people hold it
- Terminal by design: it holds STRIPS maturing between January 1 and November 30, 2030, then liquidates on or about November 30, 2030 and distributes remaining net assets.globalxetfs.comnasdaqtrader.com
- No coupons means no cash landing in the fund to reinvest at unknown future rates. The return mechanism is accretion toward par, not periodic payments.globalxetfs.comprnewswire.com
- 0.07% a year, the same sticker as the other rungs in the suite (ZCBB, ZCBC, ZCBF), so the near-dated maturity carries no price premium.
- The paper is US Treasury STRIPS, government-backed rather than corporate credit, with a defined maturity profile.globalxetfs.com
Worth knowing
- Zero-coupon prices generally move more than similar-maturity bonds that pay interest along the way, so the ride to 2030 can be bumpier than a maturity date implies.sec.gov
- Accrued discount counts as taxable income even without cash coupons, and the fund must pass it along, on an irregular rather than fixed schedule.sec.gov
- A 2026 launch, still small and thinly traded, so spreads and premium/discount matter more than with a mega-fund, and there is little tracking history yet.
