What BLV does
This ETF is designed to mirror the performance of the Bloomberg U.S. Long Government/Credit Float Adjusted Index. It achieves this through a passive investment approach, employing index sampling rather than full replication. The fund offers broad, diversified access to the U.S. bond market, concentrating on long-term, investment-grade debt instruments. A key benefit for investors is the potential for substantial current income, thanks to its focus on securities with high creditworthiness.
