Data provided bySource: Twelve DataAbout VTEAX#
Objective: “Vanguard Tax-Exempt Bond Index Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the investment-grade segment of the U.S. municipal bond market.”
How it invests: “The Fund employs an indexing investment approach designed to track the performance of the S&P National AMT-Free Municipal Bond Index (the “Target Index”), which measures the performance of the investment-grade segment of the U.S. municipal bond market as determined by the Index Provider. The Target Index includes municipal bonds issued by states, local governments, or agencies whose interest is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT). Bonds issued by U.S. territories and commonwealths are excluded from the Target Index, as are certain other bonds as determined by the Index Provider.”
Same portfolio as VTEB (ETF, 0.05% a year): VTEAX is another share class of the same fund, so what differs between them is the fee and how each is bought.

Fund flows#
Net creations minus redemptions per period, from the fund’s SEC Form N-PORT filings (series-level: where a fund shares its portfolio with mutual-fund share classes, flows cover all classes combined). Quarterly filings publish with a ~60-day lag, so recent months appear as filings land. Flow data begins mid-2019 — Form N-PORT did not exist before then, for any fund.
