Description: MEAR Short Maturity Municipal

MEAR is an actively managed ETF that invests at least 80% of its net assets in municipal securities whose interest is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT). The fund focuses on U.S. dollar-denominated, investment-grade, short-term fixed- and floating-rate municipal instruments with remaining maturities of five years or less, including municipal bonds, municipal notes, variable rate demand obligations, money market instruments, and registered investment companies.

Listed on BATS since March 2015, MEAR falls within the Muni National Short ETF category, targeting tax-exempt income with limited interest-rate sensitivity by concentrating on the shorter end of the municipal yield curve.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Fed rate cuts compress short-muni yields and lift bond prices
  • Federal tax exemption of municipal bond income faces legislative scrutiny
  • Money market funds compete for short-duration yield-seeking investor dollars
