BUXX's credit quality breakdown (the share of holdings rated AAA through CCC and below) is published on the fund's factsheet. Higher-quality (investment-grade) funds yield less but carry less default risk than high-yield / junk bond funds. ### What is the yield to maturity of BUXX? Yield to maturity (YTM) is the total return you'd earn from BUXX if every bond in the portfolio is held to maturity at the current price.
