Vanguard Long-Term Corporate Bond Index Fund ETF (VCLT) has fallen from over $105 in 2021 to around $73 due to rising interest rates, which reduce the value of long-duration bonds. Despite the drop, VCLT now offers a 5.7% annual yield, making it attractive for income investors. The fund tracks investment-grade corporate bonds with maturities over 10 years, and its price is highly sensitive to interest rate changes. If long-term rates decline, VCLT could see significant price recovery, but risks remain if rates rise further. Its income is taxed as ordinary income unless held in tax-advantaged accounts like IRAs, making it suitable for medium-to-long-term investors comfortable with volatility.
