Because I wasn’t paying close enough attention over the years, I think (actually I’m sure) that I ended up with way too many bond funds (they total about 45% of my entire portfolio and that’s about where I want it). There won’t be any transaction fees when I sell and/or exchange them.
This is what I have:
DODIX: Dodge and Cox Income Fund
VFIIX: a GNMA Fund (Vanguard)
TIP ( a whole lot of TIPs) (etf)
VCAIX: Calif. Tax Free Fund (Vanguard)
VWEHX: High Yield Fund (Vanguard)
VWUIX: Intermediate Bond Fund: Tax Free Vanguard Admiral
VFSUX: Short-term Bond Fund: Vanguard Admiral
I also own these two funds which contain bonds:
Wellesley Fund
Wellington Fund
Any suggestions about how to make this more manageable? I am thinking of dumping at least half of these and putting the proceeds into BND--but, I have no idea which ones should be closed out. The Wellesley and Wellington are not for sale.
