Price returns only, computed from 4878 daily closes — before commissions, spreads and tax, and excluding any distributions, so a fund that pays income has earned more than these figures show. Annualised figures appear only for windows longer than about 13 months. This fund has a share split on record; figures are computed from unadjusted closes and should be re-verified. These are not the fund's official NAV-based returns — see the issuer's fact sheet for those.

SPAB is trading inside its 52-week range. A high reading is not a sell signal and a low one is not a bargain — it only says where the last year's prices sit relative to today.

What the Expense Ratio Costs

SPAB charges 0.03% a year. Deducted daily from net asset value, never billed separately, so it is easy to miss. On a flat $10,000 position — holding the price steady to isolate the fee from the returns — it compounds to:

After 1 Year
$3
0.0% of capital
After 5 Years
$15
0.1% of capital
After 10 Years
$30
0.3% of capital

An illustration, not a projection: in reality the fee is charged against a balance that moves, so the dollar cost rises with a fund that grows and falls with one that shrinks. It also excludes bid-ask spread, brokerage commission and — for funds structured as commodity pools or partnerships — any additional filing complexity.

SPAB — Common Questions

What does SPAB actually track?

SPDR Portfolio Aggregate Bond ETF is a government bonds ETF from State Street. Its largest disclosed position is State Street Instl US Govt MMkt Premier at 3.25% of the fund.

How much does SPAB charge?

0.03% per year, deducted from net asset value rather than billed to you. On $10,000 held for ten years with a flat price that is about $30.

How has SPAB performed?

Over the past year the price fell 5.7%, and since 2007-05-30 it is -6.3%. Its worst peak-to-trough fall on record is -24.1%, between Aug 4, 2020 and Oct 19, 2023. Those are price returns as of 2026-10-16 and exclude distributions.

How large is SPAB?

About $9.9B in assets, trading roughly 3.22M shares a day over the last three months. Size and volume matter mainly for how cheaply you can get in and out: a thinly traded fund costs more in spread than its expense ratio suggests.

Is SPAB right for me?

That depends on what the rest of your portfolio already holds, not on this fund's recent returns. Nothing on this page is a recommendation — check the issuer's prospectus and, if it matters to your taxes or retirement, a licensed adviser.
