### What does VUSXX invest in?

Vanguard Treasury Money Market Fund, which invests primarily in U.S. Treasury securities, seeks to provide current income and preserve shareholders’ principal investment by maintaining a share price of $1.

Investors who have short-term savings goals and want the added security of investing in a fund in which the majority of the underlying securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government may wish to consider this option.Important Note:&nbsp;Income generated from investments in repurchase agreements with the federal reserve are generally subject to state and local income taxes.
