The 2008 test
Would VTES survive 2008?
VTES (Vanguard Short-term Tax-exempt Bond ETF) launched in 2023-03, after the 2008 financial crisis, so there is no real 2008 data for it, and we won't invent any.
What you can do: the stress-testing tool estimates how VTES would respond to a 2008-style shock from its measured sensitivities to stocks and rates, and replays the crashes it has actually lived through.
