iShares National Muni Bond ETF provides investors with a low-risk, low-volatility source of income that is free from federal income taxes. MUB has a tax-equivalent SEC yield of 5.9%, higher than many other high-paying bond ETFs, offering stability during economic uncertainty. With exposure to over 5,000 US muni bonds, I believe MUB offers high yield, low volatility, and capital appreciation opportunities when interest rates fall.

MUB: For Those In High Tax Brackets, Consider This Before The Recession

The iShares National Muni Bond ETF offers investors an unleveraged and multi-state exposure to generate tax-free income.
