That's only for the best price, which is what's shown in the bond search results summary. Click on "Show more", or whatever the link says at the left of the row, and you'll see quotes for smaller minimum quantities. There almost always are quotes for minimum quantities as small as 1, but the yield is a bit lower (price a bit higher) than for the larger quantities (at Vanguard and Fido; Schwab often has best price or very close for min qty 1).Hi. I am just beginning to investigate a TIPS ladder. For the TIPS listed by the calculator, Vanguard generally indicated that the minimum qty=100 ($100K). Is this typical? Where to purchase smaller quantities? Thx.
Be sure to do this when the market is open. What's shown when market is closed is not necessarily representative.
