Vanguard's Worst Performing Bond Funds In 2013

Long Term Treasury Fund, VUSTX:                          -13.03%
Long Term Government Index Fund, VLGSX:     -12.74%
Long Term Bond Index Fund, VBLTX:                       -  9.13%
Inflation Protected Securities Fund, VIPSX:          -  8.92%
Long Term Corporate Bond Index Fund, VLTCX: -  6.86%
Long Term Investment Grade Fund, VWESX:       -  5.87%

And as badly as they have performed, I don't see a net asset value for any fund which represents a bargain: they all still look too expensive to me.
