Voisard Asset Management Trims Short-Duration Corporate Bond Exposure

Voisard Asset Management Group has disclosed a substantial reduction in its holdings of the iShares 0-5 Year Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF (SLQD). According to an SEC filing dated April 10, 2026, the Michigan-based financial planning firm sold 319,967 shares of the fund. Based on the average closing price for the quarter ending March 31, 2026, the estimated value of the trade was $16.22 million. This transaction resulted in the position's weight within Voisard's 13F reportable assets under management falling from 9.3% to 5.71%. The total value of the position decreased by $16.33 million over the period, a figure that accounts for both the share sales and general price movements. Following the divestment, Voisard retains a holding of 529,983 shares, with a current valuation of approximately $26.76 million. The SLQD ETF is designed to provide exposure to high-quality, short-duration U.S. corporate bonds, featuring holdings in top-tier issuers such as Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, and Pfizer. As of April 13, 2026, the fund reported a dividend yield of 4.26%. While the ETF is structured to minimize interest rate risk and prioritize capital preservation, the reduction by Voisard suggests a tactical reallocation of its fixed-income portfolio.
