Understood, but Fidelity has multiple Municipal Bond funds rated with less risk than , for example, Large Growth Stocks,

Not that I fully understand the topic on hand here.


"Bonds" and "Bond Fund" is totally different. The former has 100% of it's risk in one bond. A fund spreads the risk over many issues, and thus less risk concentrateced in any one bond.

Do they have a municipal bond fund that focuses on red states?
I have no interest in killer governor state bonds...
That is my risk/reward profile.
