Hello,
I bought short term US treasury by auction on Vanguard. Closer to maturity I got this message:
U S TREASURY BILL CPN 0.00000 % MTD 2024-02-08 DTD 2023-08-10, CUSIP xxxx, in the brokerage account yyyy, is scheduled to mature on 2024-02-08. A quantity of 15,000 will be redeemed at $100 for a total of $15,000.
However, after redemption, the message says:
U S TREASURY BILL, cusip xxxx, in brokerage account yyyy, was redeemed on 2024-02-08. A quantity of 15,000 was redeemed at $98.66 for a total of $14,799.61.
Why am I losing 200$ if I have held it to maturity?
