stahleyp Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2019-vanguard-mutual-fund-tax-dodge/ Pretty good article. I've heard that their index funds were more tax efficient than most but never knew why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoCitiesCapital Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 There was another article on Bloomberg a few weeks back about the practice in general. Vangaurd patented attaching an ETF to their mutual fund to effectuate this in a mutual fund, but that's all. Most ETFs do this from my understanding and is by-and-large why they're more tax efficient than their fund counterparts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stahleyp Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 Pretty wild the daily change of BND vs VBTLX The ETF is down 5.44% and the fund is down .96%. Pretty crazy...since they are basically the same thing. Not sure how you can arbitrage that but seems like a no brainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
