Under classification review
This fund does not currently behave like the group it was assigned to, so its grouping is being re-reviewed. Grading pauses until the review resolves, because a letter measured against the wrong peer group would be a statement about the wrong funds.
Our read on ZTWO
In short
Most funds in the target-maturity aisle have an expiration date. ZTWO doesn't: it keeps rolling, always holding investment-grade corporate bonds 1.5 to under 2.5 years from maturity, so the two-year rung never empties.
Stated mandate
The fund is passively managed and seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the ICE 2-Year US Target Maturity Corporate Index. It normally invests at least 80% of net assets in investment-grade corporate bonds with 1.5 to less than 2.5 years remaining to maturity.
